Gray Whale Winter Lyrics & Chords By Mariee Sioux

Somehow, we'll have to find

The bones that we left in each other's mouths

'cause you still have the ones that allow me to stand upright

And now the night, it ties me tight to the bare trees

And now the night, it holds me tight to my brown knees

This will be a gray whale winter

Pulling everyone under

Golden breaths going down deeper

We will need to have fireflies in our mouths

And swallow them down, down, down, down, down

And swallow them down, down, down, down, down

So when we leave the sky behind

We will find ourselves

Blowing under waves black as crows' wings

Glowing under waves black as crows' wings

So when we leave the sky behind

We will find ourselves

Blowing under waves black as crows' wings

Glowing under waves black as crows' wings

Blowing under waves black as crows' wings

Somehow, we'll have to find

The sun that we left in each other's mouths

'cause i still have the light you left in my teeth

And now the day, it throws me out on the streets

And now the day, it throws me out of your reach

This will be the end of garden mothers

Throwing their fists through the walls

Failing to catch the falling hope clouds

She will need to have fireflies in her belly today

To shine their light on a path so she won't stray

So she won't stray

So when she leaves the sky behind

She will find herself

Blowing through the forest black as crows' eyes

Glowing through the forest black as crows' eyes

So when she leaves the sky behind

She will find herself

Blowing through the forest black as crows' eyes

Glowing through the forest black as crows' eyes

Blowing through the forest black as crows' eyes
