Leeward Side

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
