[Verse 1]
And when she woke
She shook the dreams that bound her tightly to her bed
She cleaned it all
Tidied up and cut the cobwebs inside her head

[Chorus]
Clinging on to frays of comfort
What has she thrown away?
Two lives incinerated, drained
Nothing left to give now

[Verse 2]
And when she walked
She came upon a tree where their lips first kissed
A thunderbolt
And then the sound frightened the birds from their nest

[Chorus]
Clinging on to frays of comfort
What has she thrown away?
Two lives incinerated, drained
Nothing left to give now

[Instrumental Bridge]
[Chorus]
Clinging on to frays of comfort
What has she thrown away?
Two lives incinerated, drained
Clinging on to frays of comfort
What has she thrown away?
Two lives incinerated, drained

[Outro]
Now she found a place to rest
Where the shadows run deep
Lying there, barefoot, dirty
And singing off to sleep
