Marika Hackman - Let Me In lyrics

[Verse 1] Oh let me in The air out here is thick And I've grown thin Been choking on the wind Retching through my skin Coughing up love that tastes like spring Green and starved of oxygen [Chorus 1] But I could be the light Blaze my own damn trail and you'll follow To a cruel, hard heartland I'm a cruel, hard heartland [Verse 2] Grey charcoal blue Stretched across the sky This lonely moon Leaves footprints in my shoes Wonders through my bed Strokes my paper face and combs my head Speaking silent words with hands instead [Chorus 2] She could be the light Help me base a trail and they'll follow To a cruel, hard heartland I'm a cruel, hard heartland [Bridge] To the east I raise my cup Rise at dawn and wake my sluggish heart Beat life again I am ready now, wasn't ready then [Verse 3] I plunged into the lake to hide my tears Conceal my salty fears Heaving on the gra** Gasping at the air, the sky went dark The fire broke apart We slept at last [Chorus 3] When the embers die They'll not take your hand and lead you there To a cruel, hard heartland I'm a cruel, hard heartland
