Dust and Dawn lyrics
Intro
Dust on the doorstep
Waking the yard
Sun through the wire
Warming the bars
Verse
Bare feet on cracked earth
Chickens still asleep
Grandmother's washing line
Holding the heat
Pre-Chorus
Can you feel the ground breathe
Under the beat
Something in the courtyard
Rising to meet
Chorus
Dust and dawn, we rise as one
Dust and dawn, we rise as one
Skin and stone, we become
Dust and dawn, we rise as one
Verse
Wire fence catching light
Shadows pulled thin
Old drums in my ribcage
Letting me in
Pre-Chorus
Can you feel the ground breathe
Under the beat
Something in the courtyard
Rising to meet
Chorus
Dust and dawn, we rise as one
Dust and dawn, we rise as one
Skin and stone, we become
Dust and dawn, we rise as one
Bridge
I am the yard where the dust remembers
I am the wire, the breaking light
Every step wakes the sleeping floor
Dust and dawn, held in flight
Outro
Dust settles soft
Sun on my skin
Dust and dawn
We begin
