Wraith

In the winter my blood grew black
Like the ash tree, I drew back
I am wooden but burnt too strong
I am broken but still belong

In the winter my roots grew down
Fingers clutching at a rusty crown
I am regal but ruled too long
I am broken and staging strong

You made a wraith of me
You made a wraith of me
You made a wraith of me
Like winter leaves
Like winter leaves

In the winter I will stand all night
Always lusting after loving light
So I hid my heart in hematite
Cast in iron and cold in sand

You made a wraith of me
You made a wraith of me
You made a wraith of me
Like winter leaves
Like winter leaves
