Lyrics

[Intro]
We met in a season of quicksilver tears
Recognised mercy among wild company
Started singing in secret to stay the bleed
Long night in the city new year coming in
[Verse 1]
Her crested head always shaking and hanging
Lamed by confusions and passions displaced
Though the catbirds are shouting, she rises, all eager
Supple and prowling, and doesn't speak at all
[Chorus]
Ooh, it wasn't mine
Ooh, it wasn't mine
It wasn't mine, no
[Verse 2]
We believed in the riches, those steel jaws were promising
As jealousy cleaved my spirit in two
What a gift, in the charcoal night, an altar of Aconite
Summoned to spit out the cure
[Chorus]
Ooh, it wasn't mine
Ooh, it wasn't mine
It wasn't mine, no
[Chorus]
What guides us? A drunk Judas, the size of a tiger?
Felt shy, suspended in her arrow of light
Tell the watchman it's not worth it
That the danger was just an echo
Tell the dogs go on sleeping, Sylvia's come home
[Outro]
Ooh, it wasn't mine
Ooh, it wasn't mine
It wasn't mine, no
[Outro]
We met in a season of quicksilver tears
Recognised mercy among wild company
Started singing in secret to stay the bleed
Long night in the city new year coming in
