She can't see the landscape anymore
It's all painted in her grief
All of her history
etched out at her feet

Now all of the landscape,
it's just an empty place
Acres of longing,
mountains of tenderness

Cause she's just like the weather,
can't hold her together
Born from dark water,
daughter of the rain and snow
Cause it's burning through the bloodline
It's cutting down the family tree
Growing in the landscape, darling,
in between you and me

She wants the silence
but fears the solitude
She wants to be alone
and together with you

So she ran to the lighthouse,
hoped that it would help her see
She saw that the lighthouse
had been washed out to sea

Cause she's just like the weather,
can't hold her together
Born from dark water,
daughter of the rain and snow
Cause it's burning through the bloodline
It's cutting down the family tree
Growing in the landscape, darling,
in between you and me

I wanna give you back the open sky
Give you back the open sea
Open up the ages, darling,
for you to see

You put the gun into your mouth
to bite the bullet - then spit it out,
'Cause it's running in the family,
All the rituals of you and me

Cause she's just like the weather,
can't hold her together
Born from dark water,
daughter of the rain and snow
Cause it's burning through the bloodline
It's cutting down the family tree
Growing in the landscape, darling,
in between you and me
