Hozier - Shrike(2019)

[00:36.36] I couldn't utter my love when it counted
[00:44.59] Ah, but I'm singing like a bird 'bout it now
[00:52.87] I couldn't whisper when you needed it shouted
[01:00.99] Ah, but I'm singing like a bird 'bout it now
[01:06.72]
[01:09.04] The words hung above
[01:12.60] But never would form
[01:17.81] Like a cry at the final
[01:21.89] Breath that is drawn
[01:26.51] Remember me, love
[01:30.12] When I'm reborn
[01:35.60] As the shrike to your sharp
[01:40.43] And glorious thorn
[01:44.05]
[01:59.35] And I'd no idea on what ground I was founded
[02:07.50] All of that goodness is goin' with you now
[02:15.62] Then when I met you, my virtues uncounted
[02:23.82] All of my goodness is goin' with you now
[02:29.75]
[02:32.25] Dragging along
[02:35.62] Following your form
[02:41.37] Hung like the pelt
[02:44.40] Of some prey you had worn
[02:49.69] Remember me, love
[02:52.95] When I'm reborn
[02:56.29]
[02:58.48] As a shrike to your sharp
[03:03.29] And glorious thorn
[03:07.06]
[03:38.65] I fled to the city with so much discounted
[03:44.90]
[03:47.14] Ah, but I'm flying like a bird to you now
[03:52.76]
[03:55.14] Back to the hedgerows where bodies are mounted
[04:03.34] Ah, but I'm flying like a bird to you now
[04:10.74] I was housed by your warmth
[04:15.08] Thus transformed
[04:20.14] By you're grounded and giving
[04:24.21] And darkening scorn
[04:28.87] Remember me, love
[04:32.52] When I'm reborn
[04:37.52] As a shrike to your sharp
[04:42.54] And glorious thorn
[04:45.00]
