Annika Bentley - Blood Bear Lyrics

Your blood is moving slow, and thickly so
Your blood oh it is glancing to and fro and it will not let go
I've got a bear in my heart and he is telling me it's time, you know
To say goodbye to the pulse and the aching, squeezing flow

In this blood are the seeds you've sown, a field of veins you raked and hoed
But the open flood, oh it never comes, you're dry and scorched
You bless the crows
Here comes that bear for my heart
He's marching chamber dirges as he grows
Goodbye goodbye, goodbye goodbye
We count it down, we count it down to zero

Goodbye, I know

I'd heal your blood, our stars and cells were made to dance
To light our way and keep us close
We hum, we flame, we shine, we shake
We resonate and then we go
Here comes that bear for my heart, he is steady dragging as a stone
He enfolds me in his loving arms, we bow our heads, he takes me home

I know that bear in my heart, we're symbiotic, toe to toe
We are resting here in the still of time, a single beat, a final stroke

Goodbye, I know, goodbye
That's how strong my love is, that's how strong my love is
