My Swords

Karli Fairbanks - accordion, guitar, vocals, Scott Ellis - pedal steel, Caroline Fowler - vocals.

Only your voice, rings in my ears. It scatters my swords
And the fragrance you keep, it sharpens my mind and quickens my feet

Your savage heart took me much too far, where there were no ropes or ladders
How could I have reached any further than the peaks to that which you drew me

Rough times did come, somehow pull through. Now frightened by the light.
In darkness awake to starry filled skies, your door open wide.

Your savage heart took us much too far, where there were no nets to catch us.
How could we have found a way not to drown, we were sinking very quickly.

I do not love you in vain, but I only exist now under my pride
So accompany me to confess my sins, what good are blind eyes?

Your savage heart took me much too far, where there were no saving graces
How could I have reached any further than the peaks to that which you drew me
