[Verse 1]
High winds
White sky
Wild birds do glide
Tattered smoke fades
Embers in the pipe
Move like
Life beginning

[Verse 2]
High winds
Pyramids
Glittering ring
Blood of the king
Daughter of the stars
You are
Life beginning

[Bridge]
The wind's travellers' tales tease the tops of the trees
The ships have all sailed to the mouth of the sea

[Verse 3]
High winds
Wheel turns
The spider spins
Hands draw us in
River-scented skin
Moves in
Life beginning
[Outro]
Falsehood lies panting like a fish in the palm
