[Verse 1]
A liar of the sharpest tongue - we can't be something we're not
I met with the winged things baying
And they feed off the winter lurking in your mind
I can see it in your eyes
I just want you to get out
I just want you to get out

[Chorus]
But once you were beautiful, enough to bear
Seeds of gold - I didn't sow much
You would hold me, and I would stare
A pillar of salt, whisked away by the air
Beautiful, right from the start
I loved your soul, enough to leave in the cold

[Verse 2]
Just when I think that I'll be safer out here
By picking up the pace, covering ground
Something is looming wicked in these clouds
And calling me back
Where will I run when all these winged things circle over my head?
When you're young in the wild, livin' in denial, you'll never survive

[Chorus]
But once you were beautiful, enough to bear
Seeds of gold - I didn't sow much
You would hold me, and I would stare
A pillar of salt, whisked away by the air
Beautiful, right from the start
I loved your soul, enough to leave in the cold
[Bridge]
I don't know, I don't know, I don't know
If it's your voice that dissolves on the brittle light
You supplicate from the place I did not tread
And asked me to lay myself bare
You are dressed in night and snow

[Chorus]
Beautiful enough to bear
Seeds of gold - I didn't sow much
You would hold me, and I would stare
A pillar of salt, whisked away by the air
Beautiful, right from the start
I loved your soul, enough to leave in the cold

[Outro]
(Into the cold, I now go) Into the shroud
(Into the cold, I now go) Into the shroud
Now that I know we're one in the same Into the shroud
You're young in the wild, livin' in denial, you'll never survive
Now that I know we're one and the same Into the shroud
So young in the wild, livin' in denial
