Lyrics
Sky Pulls Down
by Camelia Jade
shed, shed, shed, you said
reveal how much you need
what is all this armor
when you're strong enough to bleed?
I crack my branches
to feel the weight
of how much they've emptied you
what would they have done, when I was young
if they knew how sad I was
would they have taken it from me?
what's the use in fighting
to find our way,
what's the use in fighting?
what do you hold dear?
and what will you keep near
when the sky pulls down
lift us up
and let the sun bless our eyes
in the first blue light of the sky
