Lyrics

I didn't know all the load I could carry
'Til I sank to my knees in the merciless sun
Yeah, the voice in my head said, "Someday your burden
Will be taken from you, but today's not the one"
[Instrumental]
Child in rags, three times cursed
Gonna teach you the forgotten verse
Child in red, spilled her blood
Know the words to bring the flood
Child in white, walk with death
Gonna sing until you love yourself
Child in white, walk with death
Gonna sing until you love yourself
I didn't know all the joy I could levy
'Til I rose to my feet in the merciful sun
And the voice in my head said, "Someday you'll be buried
You'll return to the stars, but today's not the one"
[Instrumental]
Child in black, three times blessed
Gonna lead us from the shadowlands
Child in green, know her worth
Write the world a holy book
Child in gold, story bound
Speak until the lost are found
Child in white, walk with death
Gonna sing until you love yourself
I didn't know all the joy I could levy
'Til I rose to my feet in the merciful sun
And the voice in my head said, "Someday you'll be buried
You'll return to the stars, but today's not the one"
