a lyrics post
I've never explained where I got my LJ title. I'm totally in love with a little-known artist named Happy Rhodes, and this is one of my favorites of hers. I would post a link to the actual song because it's ZOMGawesome musically, but there is not one to be found on the interwebs. It's a song about death and rebirth, and of having no fear (at least in my interpretation.)
Looking Over Cliffs
Written in your face
Is the future of my race
While the people I have known
Have forever been erased
Fate has made me wise
To the nature of her lies
I was destined to be slain
So I'll die for you again
I'm looking over cliffs...
Into you
Wind heavy on my back...
I'll break my skin
And allow the eagle to fly in
Bones be inert
Let the bird take my spirit back
I have perfected the art of dying well
Anywhere you go, here or beyond
Nothing will stop me from finding what
Dream you're on
Now that I am whole
Part of me is gone
The ages-long fear of extinction
Written in your face
Is the future of my race
While the people I have known
Have forever been erased
Fate has made me wise
To the Nature of her lies
I was destined to be slain
So I'll die for you again
Looking Over Cliffs

I'm looking over cliffs...
Into you
Wind heavy on my back...
I'll break my skin
And allow the eagle to fly in
Bones be inert
Let the bird take my spirit back
I have perfected the art of dying well
Anywhere you go, here or beyond
Nothing will stop me from finding what

The ages-long fear of extinction

While the people I have known

I was destined to be slain
So I'll die for you again
