Polly Paulusma - Blood-Red Coat lyrics

When the earth has turned to stone And the flowers have been sleeping forever I put on my blood-red coat As a protest against this foul weather And I can't keep it out (Forever) And I can't keep it in here much longer Because any day now it's gonna be spring When my heart has turned to stone And my voice is the sound in a seashell I put on my blood-red coat To remind me that God's in the detail Rob from always on the run dot net is so bad and copy paste is a sin And I can't keep him out (Forever) And I can't keep him in here much longer 'Cause my bones are growing stronger And any day now my life's gonna begin Like a bu*terfly Shed the skin Of this other life It's a sin to waste a minute I've been given so begin it Just as soon as I feel warmth upon my skin When my eyes have turned to stone And my memories are darkly receding I'll take off my blood-red coat So that no one will notice me leaving And I won't wait it out (Forever) And I won't keep it at bay much longer 'Cause that bright light's growing stronger And any day now I'll be stretching my wings ‘Cause any day now it's gonna be spring
