(h)our Islands Lyrics

Dudley Corporation (h)our Islands

We came in from the coldand doused ourselves in oils
We rose at dawn and sailed away
We laughed we cried we closed
our eyes to keep us warm
We held the skies apart

and tore down god and child
in a language of curse and song
and closed our sad hearts
and eyes to keep us warm
So lead me to your shore
Hold me under the water
Hold me asleep forever
