angelshark

Tori Amos

He lit, he lit, he lit the sage
Then he turned to face me
Your pain, your pain, I feel your pain
In every way

Medicine man, explain
We who choose love
Over greed
We are becoming
An endangered species

Like an angelshark
We re angelsharks
Like an angelshark
We sometimes must hide
To survive
In the dark, in the dark
Hide to survive in the dark

He said
Your injury, your injury
Has cut you so deep
What you think is killing you
The medicine you need
Our guides will lead you from here
Up north to twenty-three peaks

We who choose love
Over greed
We are becoming
An endangered species

Like an angelshark
We re angelsharks
Like an angelshark
We sometimes must hide
To survive
In the dark, in the dark
Hide to survive angelshark
In the dark, in the dark
We ll survive in the dark
We ll survive
We ll survive
