lyrics

I dream of quiet nights in the trees
A height they cannot reach
And all the sideshow gawkers on the edge of town
Could never talk me down

They’re burning shadows in the summer heat
I see it in my dreams
I hear the sound of crickets & the steady drum
But I will never run
No I will never run

Chains & charms devour me
It’s my nature to be one
Chains & charms devour me
It’s my nature to be one
It’s my nature

Here in the new dawn of a different world
I’m just another girl
But the subtle culling as the flame grows on
The roses, they begin to unfurl

We are the tears that hang from your eyes
The shame you try to hide
What is it Mother that makes our brothers
Wanna see us on our knees in the night?

Chains & charms devour me
It’s my nature to be one
Chains & charms devour me
It’s my nature to be one
I know I’m the culprit
But I can’t help it
It’s in my flesh & blood
Chains & charms devour me
It’s my nature to be one
It’s my nature
