Lyrics for Song: Landscape
Lyrics for Album: MTV Unplugged [2012]
She can't see the landscape anymore
It's all painted in her grief
All of her history etched out at her feet
Now all of the landscape, it's just an empty place
Echoes and warning, mountains of tenderness
Cause she's just like the weather, can't hold her together
Born from dark water, daughter of the rain and snow
Cause it's burning through the bloodline
it's coming down the family tree
Rolling in the landscape, darling, in between you and me
She wants the silence but fears the solitude
She wants to be alone and together with you
So she ran to the lighthouse, hoped that it would help her see
She's sober at the lighthouse and then washed out to sea
Cause she's just like the weather, can't hold her together
Born from dark water, daughter of the rain and snow
Cause it's burning through the bloodline
it's coming down the family tree
Rolling in the landscape, darling, in between you and me
I wanna give you back the open sky
Give you back the open sea
Open up the ages, darling, for you to see
You put the gun into your mouth to die
You put the lid and spit out
Cause it's running in the family
Oh the rich and
Cause she's just like the weather, can't hold her together
Born from dark water, daughter of the rain and snow
Cause it's burning through the bloodline
it's coming down the family tree
Rolling in the landscape, darling, in between you and me
