Lyrics

Swallow

He calls my name
The sacred hunter
It talks like that
It flows likes water

Ooo-ooo-ooo
Ooo-ooo-ooo

The soul laid out
I see the nether
To turn back now
There's no way

Ooo-ooo-ooo
Ooo-ooo-ooo

I listen for it
And I see the fog
I see the forest
And I call it off

On my way home
I caught a swallow
With broken wings
And a face that's narrow

Its heart still beats
And it calls me over
It talks me out
And it takes me over

He calls me name
And he says it backwards
Then he flies away
And leaves without words

And before this day
I spoke in rivers
Now I know my name
And it no longer hurts
