Afraid, You let strangers in your home If it keeps you throwing stones And movin' round Veiled, She watches while you make Not-so-innocent mistakes You're just a child She Is the song of others eyes The one you thought had died When your candle went out She waits While you clothe yourself in wire For you to drop what you're holding onto, babe Sister saves Thrown away, she's hanging on She's silent, but you see it in her eyes She saves Thrown away, she's hanging on Found a way to trade you wrong for right She saves Brave, She storms your broken throne And from a pile of stones She pulls you out Afraid, She brings you eye to eye She knows now that it's time Open your mouth Thrown away, she's hanging on She's silent, but you see it in her eyes You're saved Thrown away, still hanging on Found a way to trade you wrong for right You're saved Halle Halle She takes You to the greatest heights See the world burning bright She makes it known Then she leaves In feathered waves of light Far better on her mind She leaves you right there
