Lyrics:
"Get me far 
From here
From this
For now

I won’t
Won’t cry
Not for you
Not now

Pause this life and story
Quiet nights
My empty street

Watch the sky 
So starry
See my breath
Find my peace

For the first time in years
They didn’t cross
My mind today

I’m thankful for the 
Fears that hold me occupied
The tears that come with 
Passing by that street 

Know I would kill for you
I’m here for you
I’m deep for you 
No doubt 

And right now I’m on my own
But just text me though
Cause I’d drop it all and bounce 
(So you’d feel safe)

What can I afford to do
To not melt into
All these years of stress
When my hands are blue

And colder when I touch you
Than my heart could ever want to
Slip away into the comfort of
The silence and the darkness of my room

Know I would kill for you
I’m here for you
I’m deep for you 
No doubt 

And right now I’m on my own
But just text me though
Cause I’d drop it all and bounce 
So you’d feel safe

(I won’t 
Won’t cry
Not for you
Not for now)"

Get Me Far


The lady stands in her bower door,
As straight as willow wand.
The blacksmith waits a little fore bye,
Hammer heavy in his hand.
“Weel may ye dress ye, lady fair,
In robes of deepest red.
Before the morn returns again,
I’ll claim what you have kept.”

She swore by the mold,
By chest of gold,
“I’d rather be gone,
Than give my heart untold.”

O bide, lady, bide…
Through every shape, I will find,
O bide, lady, bide…
Through every turn, your fate is mine.


She turned herself to a turtle dove,
To fly up in the sky.
He became another dove,
Pairing wing to wing on high.
She swam into the burn as eel,
He followed as the trout.
She puddled as a duck, he drake,
Round and round they spun about.

O bide, lady, bide,
No matter how you hide,
Through every spell and shape,
The blacksmith walks beside.

O bide, lady, bide…
Through every shape, I will find,
O bide, lady, bide…
Through every turn, your fate is mine.


Hare on the hill, greyhound at your heel,
Mare and saddle, spinning wheels.
Girdle and cake, ship and nail,
No escape through storm or veil.

She became a silken plaid,
Stretching soft upon a bed.
He became the green covering,
And claimed what had been fled.
All her pride, all her defiance,
Could not stand against his call.
Through every twist, through every turn,
The blacksmith conquered all.

O bide, lady, bide…
Through every shape, I will find,
O bide, lady, bide…
Through every turn, your fate is mine.
O bide, lady, bide…
Through every spell, I will bind,
O bide, lady, bide…
The blacksmith’s will is intertwined.

Was she wae? He held her close…
Through all her pride, her maiden’s ghost…
O bide… O bide…
