Thrice Silver Wings song lyrics

From tender years, you took me for granted

But still I deigned to wander through your lungs

While you were sleeping soundly in your bed

Your drapes were silver wings, your shutters flung

I drew the poison from the summer's sting

And eased the fire out of your fevered skin

I moved in you and stirred your soul to sing

And if you'd let me, I would move again

I've danced 'tween sunlit strands of lover's hair

Helped form the final words before your death

I've pitied you and plied your sails with air

Gave blessing when you rose upon my breath

And after all of this, I am amazed

That I am cursed far more than I am praised.
