>> [music] >> I walk where the king gets to behave. Where prayers don't kneel, [singing] they shimmer and cave. In the smoke of a bell, in [music] the salt of a [singing] sun, a circle of women stood under no sky. Not one but [music and singing] a
chorus and shadows in bloom. A crown made of thunder him for [singing] the tomb. They didn't ask for [music] my faith. They asked [singing] for my truth. They didn't promise me heaven. They promised me.
Oh, the dead [music] at the edge of the [singing] fire with white desire. [music and singing] Mother and monster mercy and night. They don't take your love. They take what's not right. [music] And when they say like a door that [music] remembers the
shape of your skin. I tremble. I'm golden. I'm ruined. I'm not [music] afraid. I'm becoming [singing] true.
One wears a night [music] like a cloak without seams. [singing] Tongue like a comet that devours my dreams. [music] One laughs in the market with ink on her hands. Blessing [music] the outcasts untying their bands. One sits on a lotus of dangerous grace. Beauty [music] so sharp it can cut
through my face. What is the silence that freezes [music] a lie? Stopping the world with a bit in her eye. [music] What is the widow of every regret? The queen final you'll never forget. [music] What is the storm with the mother?
What is the doorway that [singing] opens through? Oh, the dead at the edge of the fire. [music] I'll be braing with my white desire. Murder and monster. Mercy and night.
They don't take [music] your love. They take what's not life. And when they say the veil turns in like a door that remembers the shape of your [music] skin. I tremble. I'm golden. I'm ruined. I'm new. I am [music] not afraid. I am becoming true. [music]
They [music] are fever that turns into [singing] sight. the holy mistake that corrects you at night. They are the mirror that won't flatter pain. [singing] They are the river that eats every [music] chain. Not angels, not demons. No, they're the honest ones. The
ones who know [singing] they love like truth. No perfume, no pose, just the blade [singing] of the mouth. The wild rose grow. [singing] [music]

[music] >> I tried to name them. My mouth turned to dust. So I listened instead and I learned how to trust. 10 winds in [singing] a temple. 10 notes in my bone. 10 ways to come back to the heart I disown. [music] They don't want my
worship. They don't want my fear. They want me awake. They want me right here. Oh, the dead [music] at the edge of the fire. Crown of the night and the morning's choir. Mother and monster.
Mercy [music] and knife. They don't take your love. They take what's not [singing] alive. And when they say the veil turns dead like a door that remembers the shape of your [music] skin. I tremble. I'm golden. I'm ruined.
I'm new. I am not afraid. I'm becoming true.
10 [music] shadows, [singing] one flame, 10 heads on the same [music] dark name. And I walk out with a stare that [music and singing] can see
