[Chorus 2] |

[Verse 2] |

[Chorus 2] |
|
[Verse 3] |
| [00:13.48] |
Woman of custom just severed ties |
| [00:18.92] |
What never changed had always died, so |
| [00:24.50] |
Suddenly she's opened eyes |
| [00:29.15] |
That fill with tears and come alive |
| [00:35.56] |
Her stifled love sleeping forever was |
| [00:40.98] |
Unaroused like changeless weather |
| [00:46.54] |
And little chance that she was ever |
| [00:52.34] |
Going to smash the precious measure |
| [00:57.80] |
She never lived with pain, fear or anger |
| [01:02.55] |
Windowless and tame like a precious stone langoured |
| [01:08.16] |
A heart enchained, willing to surrender |
| [01:13.61] |
But now if storms would only blow |
| [01:21.58] |
She could really feel the roll |
| [01:36.78] |
Those years of sleep, all waking dreams |
| [01:42.38] |
Unpeopled places on painted screens |
| [01:47.85] |
And diffused in subdued streams |
| [01:52.93] |
Her life was cast, traditional schemes |
| [01:59.10] |
She never lived with pain, fear or anger |
| [02:04.24] |
Windowless and tame like a precious stone langoured |
| [02:09.83] |
A heart enchained, willing to surrender |
| [02:15.19] |
But now if storms would only blow |
| [02:23.06] |
Then she could really feel the roll |
| [02:28.53] |
She could really feel the roll |
| [02:46.19] |
A hunger that lasts can have no pain |
| [02:51.64] |
It's just these words that don't explain |
| [02:57.30] |
Eaten alive and spat aout again |
| [03:02.66] |
They jam in the memory like ancient remains |
