Shiola Songtext

von Murder by Death

I steal a look between the blinds I unwind she sleeps in comfort in my arms she is plain, but she is mine our child is silent but awake I run my hands through his hair I teach him manners and how to stick up for himself when things get bad I tell him son never throw the first punch and if you must fight make it clean

SHIOLA SHIOLA
Will all be forgiven
SHIOLA SHIOLA
Am I strong enough
To start again alone
The taste of home
Is filling up my mouth
Is it wrong to love a family of ghosts
Her door is open
The windows are all up
She says ?come inside?

I love alone, more or less I summon wife child and happiness build them up from the dirt and clay I have to believe that all will be forgiven

SHIOLA SHIOLA
Will all be forgiven
SHIOLA SHIOLA
Am I strong enough
To start again alone
SHIOLA SHIOLA
My heart is overflowing
SHIOLA SHIOLA
With love and anger coiled into one
They take the take,
But never get their fill
I try and try
And fail against my will
I wait and wait
For that hand to sweep me up
And take me down the road home
