Lyrics
You were raised by wolves and voices, Every night I hear them howling deep beneath your bed They said it all comes down to you

You’re the daughter of sightless watching stones You watch the stars hurl all their fundaments In wonderment, at you and yours, forever asking more

You are that space that’s in between every page, every chord and every screen, You are the driftwood and the rift, you’re the words I promise I don’t mean We’re drunk but drinking, sunk but sinking They thought us blind, we were just blinking All the stones and kings of old will hear us screaming at the cold

Remember me I ask. Remember me I sing Give me back my heart you wingless thing

Think of all the horrors that I Promised you I’d bring I promise you, they’ll sing of every Time you passed your fingers through my hair and called me child Witness me old man, I am The Wild

You are the son of every dressing up box, And I am Time itself, I slow to let you play I steal the hours and turn the night into day

Day by day oh lord three things I pray That I might understand as best I can, How bold I was, could be - will be - still am, by god still am

Fret not dear heart, let not them hear The mutterings of all your fears, the fluttering of all your wings Welcome to the storm, I am thunder, Welcome to my table bring your hunger

Think of all the horrors that I Promised you I’d bring I promise you, they’ll sing of every Time you passed your fingers through my hair and called me child Witness me old man, I am The Wild

Remember me, Remember me, Remember me, Remember me Remember me I ask. Remember me I sing

Think of all the horrors that I Promised you I’d bring I promise you, they’ll sing of every Time you passed your fingers through my hair and called me child Witness me old man, I am the Think of all the horrors that I Promised you I’d bring I promise you, they’ll sing of every Time you passed your fingers through my hair and called me child Witness me old man, I am the
