LYRICS:

There's a girl with feathers in her hair.
Runs from god plain and daint and like the rest.
Has no plan but she knows best. Lives a lie.
Doesn't know but there are people that care.
Found a river nobody bothers.
She'll take a swim even if she knows she'll die.
Rapids tumble, twisting up white and rough.
He is watching but she doesn't care.

Sometimes the best die, I hope that she learns from who or whatever the god is she serves. Hold slow. She's lost in the ferns. Endlessly hiding away from his words.

Hold slow.

Her whole life was summed up in fifteen cold words
and it took her six years to build up the nerves.
And what had she lost? It was what she deserved
but now knows the father
and found her way out of the ferns.
