I am my grandfather’s blood
I am the poison and the flood
And I’m the one who’s leaving
When you find another love
I am the sin and the saint
I am the voice that you hate
And I’m the one who’s bleeding
And I’m freezing in the cold
I’m the bastard
I’m the lone man
I’m the needing of your love
Now I’m a free man
A strange and cold man
With all the things I’ve never done
You’re the sparrow
That fills the heart full
You’re the branches through the trees
You’re the warm glow
The way the wind tolls
You’re the light I’ll never see
