Nether

[Verse 1] At the turn of the year came a turn in the weather A storm blew down the old ash tree And opened a way to the nether Riven world was plain to see Eons hid her in plain sight The storm she gave eyes to you and me [Chorus] To love the light, the fire's spark You must first have been buried in the deep down dark Deep down dark The deep down dark [Verse 2] So we followed the line of a barn owl's flight In those days, in those distant days And set sail for the nether on the river of night Wavеs like wolves in the shadows of blazе Black hails struck like hammer blows When again will the dead see the bright sun's rays [Chorus] To love the light, the fire's spark You must first have been buried in the deep down dark Deep down dark Deep down dark [Verse 3] Deep In the nether where the river slows Reading a map with too many folds Pulled down forever by the undertows Till you lift me out of the water's jaws Up through the gap in the roof of the night And my bones grow again in the upper light Pus flies on my skin roots pull me apart I am green to my eyes and green to my heart [Chorus] To love the light, the fire's spark You must first have been buried in the deep down dark The deep down dark The deep down dark Deep down dark Deep down dark
