Lyrics

I was born in the archer's moon
I was made by a clinician's hand
My mother and father, they wanted a daughter
They raised her on loveless land
With a song and a steel tongue
And the schoolchildren jeered,
"She's so uglily formed"
I was wicked, but warm
Now I run, and I fear
I can't be alone
With all that I've ever known
So if I roam
Can I come home?
I was birthed in the winter's breath
Where the groundhog saw face and saw fear
Oh, it writhed and it withered for six weeks of winter more
But I got twenty-five years
And now I'm on my own
With all that I've ever known
So when I roam
Can I come home?
And I can't bear a child
That I can't survive
For I can't hold their hand when they leave this strange land
That I leased them when I brought them life
Oh, I'm every ugliness prone
And I've cursed every tempest above
Oh, despite every violence shown
And with every violence known
I still believe in love
