Текст пісні
Someone broke into my eyes
Took what they could see
Took my breath and held it far too long
The crowd at the hanging shook she bird from every tree
Just to hear them scatter with a song
This is how we love and who we are is what we know
And let it be the killing floor's small wonder, mm
The moon in the afternoon, I ask her for a sign
A story we might learn to read aloud
I follow the horizon that rolls away in kind
A fading light to lead me back around
This is who we are and how we love is what we know
And let it be the killing floor's small wonder, mm
We build this house already razed by fire as we go
Its smoke a leaning ladder that we climb
We clear the field around us and cut it into rows
And grow ourselves up by the fall of time
This is how we love and who we are is what we know
And let it be the killing floor's small wonder, mm
