Leeward Side - Josh Pyke
.
And I have bound myself to your bearings
My love is a nesting bird
Lodged in the breast of her
.
Lace up your boots tied to the jagged line
Of a million different lives
Under the leeward side
.
Cause I want to be someone
Worthy of your conversation
There's madness in the moonless night
So shake off your leeward side
.
And everything that I did or did not do
In the miniature of my life
Has a lineage back to you
And some will sit on their hands
To spite their feet
But one day I know I'll see
You dancing away from me
.
Cause I want to be someone
Worthy of your conversation
There's madness in the moonless night
So shake off your leeward side
.
We all want to be someone
In the miniature of your life
The madness in a wounded sky
So shake of your salvation
.
You will want more
You will want more
You will want more
Than I can offer you
I bear you from my shore
But to my skin
And to my bones
Down to my very core
The call you'll heed is one
I will follow
.
One day you will unfold
And fall into the untold
And one day you'll long to be
Dancing away from me
.
But under the hollow sky
Past where the cells divide
And until the day I die
I'll be your leeward side
.
