Fearlessness

Tori Amos · Night Of Hunters [2011]

Fearlessness blew in

With the wind

Waking up to greet the sun

We sailed on like the ancient ones

Into the Nine Underworlds

We knew Dangers would come

I had faith in both of us



Listen to your heart

You can hear me

Listen to your heart

You can hear me



Day turned night when he questioned,

"Why can't you balance the skies?"

Soulless storms have sent Watchers

With blade-less weapons to fight



Teams of Horses of the Brine

Followed his cry

Through the fire

Demons of the Wild hissed with the wind

Did you listen?



Listen to your heart

Can you hear me?

Listen to your heart

Can you hear me?



Fearlessness soon reminded me,

"You must be stronger than they"

Cautioning, "There are those who live

To be cruel for the fun of it."



He let in a dark companion

That orbited between us

His siren friends convinced him that Love

Was no match against storms to come

Their songs inflamed by Doubt

Fearlessness drown them out



Teams of Horses of the Brine

Followed his cry

Through the fire

Demons of the Wild hissed with the wind

Did you listen?



Listen to your heart

Can you hear me?

Listen to your heart

Can you hear me?



Did we begin

Without knowing it

To find fault in every gift

Then that was when

The Blame began

What were once two forces joined

In Fearlessness
