Lyrics

I say a prayer to the water and offer up my dream
Take all the unkindness and let me be redeemed

Black spruce like needles pierce midnight sky
I’ll hunt for you at daybreak gnashed teeth and anxious eyes

Sun shines down on the water a thousand glittering coins

Last night I met a serpent she stole me from my sleep
All silver-tongue and honey she swore she’d be discreet

When all the crushing furry fractures rock and bone
I’ll beg for your forgiveness a servant at the throne

In the pitch-dark blanket of night black silk washes the shore
