Rosie Gordon Lies So Still

Don`t be afraid to let the rain come in
Don`t be frightened for your skin
The heart`s as open as it`s
Ever been

It doesn`t beat
Or break or cry
There`s only earth
And grass and sky

Now you stretch beneath the
Beating sun
Within the minute of all time
The grass and trees don`t for a
Second long

Pause to say
Hello goodbye
To where you live
Or when you die
They know nothing about your heart
They know nothing about your heart

Rosie Gordon lies so
Very still
Under the carpet
Of the earth
If this won`t wake you then
Nothing will

They cut your clothes
Round your blackened skin
You`d never know
Where life begins until you learn
They know nothing about your heart
They know nothing about your heart
They knew nothing about your heart

It doesn`t beat
Or break or cry
There`s only earth
And grass and sky
They know nothing about your heart
They know nothing about your heart
They know nothing about your heart
