Lyrics
White Elephant Coat
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
See the branches bend like
silk ribbons without breaking
The wind crashes into
walls without shattering
into a million strands
I ask you to listen
A sunless winter light
throws its coat down to say
keep your feet faultless before
the martyred ground defaced
and torn by no fault of its own
Bloodless lithe absolution
I give you so take from me
this white elephant coat
