LYRICS:

I will tie one end to my place of living
I will tie this rope to my body
Then I’ll tie it to this stone
I will fasten this hemp tightly around my sustenance
And I will secure this properly
around the people who make me feel at home

I will press my fingers to your lips
I will place my hand over my mouth and tighten my grip
It’s my fault; it’s my fault; it’s my fault,
I opened up to you
It’s my fault I told you the truth

I will tie one end to my place of living
I will tie this rope to my body
Then I’ll tie it to this stone
I will fasten this hemp tightly around my sustenance
And I will secure this properly
around the people who make me feel at home

I will press my fingers to your lips
I will place my hand over my mouth and tighten my grip
It’s my fault; it’s my fault; it’s my fault,
I opened up to you
It’s my fault, I told you the truth

Those privileged – they like to pillage
My body – it’s just a cavern of gold
Left to harbor these treasures
For those – who don’t know what is precious
They don’t know
So privileged – they like to pillage
So privileged – they like to pillage

Only whispers left without promise
Only utterance, unkempt
Anticipate the fog that follows
I can only regret

Now that this has been addressed
You cannot ensure this pledge would be kept
So I can’t, No I can’t - I can’t let you in
I can’t, No I can’t - I can’t let you in

My body – it’s just a cavern of gold
Left to harbor these treasures untold
Those who don’t know what is precious
So privileged

You had my forgiveness under your control
And you threw it deep in the distance

So privileged – they like to pillage
So privileged – they like to pillage
So privileged – they like to pillage
Those privileged – they like to pillage
