lyrics

I am a lonely witch
On an uninhabited island
I walk and gather stones
And I wait for a ship to pass me by
It’s not the waiting that I fear
No, it’s the arriving

Free now that I’m forsaken,
Unafraid when the sky shakes my island with lightning
I let the light in
It doesn’t matter if I scream,
Or sing out loud—
Hear my echo resounding,
My loneliness surrounds me
No, it’s not the waiting that I fear the worst,
It’s the arriving

I am a lonely witch
On an uninhabited island
Maybe the place I came from
Wasn’t anything more than an illusion
It’s not the waiting that I fear
No, it’s the arriving

Free now that I’m forsaken,
Unafraid when the sky shakes my island with lightning
I let the light in
It doesn’t matter if I scream,
Or sing out loud—
Hear my echo resounding,
My loneliness surrounds me
No, it’s not the waiting that I fear the worst,
It’s the arriving
