[Verse 1]
Whisper, whimper on I
Won't forget to close your eyes for you
I'll sing before you lie down, down
And push your sleep along

[Verse 2]
I'll sink below the ground
Find the weeping, wailing calls you echo in
I'll build a house around you
Stir a moat until you drown, down

[Refrain]
I'll whisk away your heartsigh
And bury it in mine
I'll whisk away your heartsigh
And bury it in mine

[Chorus]
Only, lonely, hidden breath beneath the floor
Only, only, where your tears drip from the drawers
Only, lonely, hid the morning from the stars
Only, only, weeping glimmers in the dark

[Verse 3]
I can hear your back crackin'
O'er the sky so you could wear it
Thunder whispered low, so
You could bear it in
[Refrain]
I'll whisk away your heartsigh
And bury it in mine
I'll whisk away your heartsigh
And bury it in mine

[Bridge]
Come down, come now back
Carry on, wearily on
Come down, come now back
Carry on, warily on

[Chorus]
Only, lonely, hidden breath beneath the floor
Only, only, where your tears drip from the drawers
Only, lonely, hid the morning from the stars
Only, only, weeping glimmers in the dark

[Refrain]
I'll whisk away your heartsigh
And bury it in mine
I'll whisk away your heartsigh
And bury it in mine
