bernard fanning - say you're mine lyrics

it’s a steep flight down from this nest aloft
it’s proving much faster than the climb
your searchlight has found me here bloated and lost
drunk on the fruit of my very own vines
the first missteps on this winding path
set alarm bells ringing in my ears
the laboured breath of my chequered past
still hot on my neck after all these years
i’d burn it all down
i’d tear you a hole in the sky
i’d give it all up just to say
just to make you mine
i hovered and i wavered over it long enough
it was the darkest and loneliest day
the trolls in my head made their delicate cuts
and had the pound of flesh carried away…..
carried away……..
there’s a silver line strung around the clouds
that range on the eastern sky
predicted sun but it’s rained again
these are the days when i feel i’m beginning to fight
i laid down that blackbird in a comfortable nest
i patted its dark feathers down
i could see its tiny heart beating hard in its chest
the humming of its wings such a heartbreaking sound
i’d burn it all down
i’d tear you a hole in the sky
i’d give it all up just to say
just to make you mine
