Lauren Hoffman - Out of the Sky, Into the Sea (in album The Lucknow lyrics

rate me

Don't want to go where they are cruel and cold

Turning me into stone, making me dry

Give me this warmth

A sunbeam to live in

A window to look out of

Misery blooms on the stem of suppression

The world that you see is the one you believe

Sleeping in poppies, lost in the forest

Out of the sky, into the sea

Disappear under here pulled by the tide

Give me an island

I am an island

Don't want to go where they pull out the mold

Casting me out of clay, making me dry

Give me this warmth

A sunbeam to live in

A window to look out of

Shut out the sights

Pull tight the sheets

Hey live in the dark and their faces you see

By the sliver of light through a cracked open door

Castles and kings await you my sweet

Dragons will fly you far, far from here

Where the concrete enfolds you

Here, where they mould you of steel

Out of the sky, into the sea

Disappear under here pulled by the tide

Give me an island

I am an island
