Emma Ruth Rundle - Haunted Houses

Wither without the morning
Dogs of the dawning are always wanting
Follow in sleeping
Friends in the far room have stopped their speaking

Speaking in tongues
To whisper near
To hold so close and hold so dear
This Curse is old, passed through the years
The Tower, tall, is falling here

So keep distance from me

Don't say this house is haunted
This house is haunted like Hell on Earth for me
Don't say it's not what you wanted
The tears come flooding like holy water seas
Don't say this house not haunted
This house so haunted, it runs in the family
Don't say this house not haunted
This house so haunted, won't ever let go of me

Follow in dreaming
Our bodies empty, touching the ceiling
Hollow hands hold the other
Rose of the morning has lost her color
Loses the red inside my chest
The borrowed bone that binds the breast
This Curse is old and lasts the years
The Tower, tall, is falling here

So keep distance, keep your distance from me

Don't say this house is haunted
This house is haunted like Hell on Earth for me
Don't say it's not what you wanted
The tears come flooding like holy water seas
Don't say this house is haunted
It runs in the forever like blood in the family
Don't say it's not what you wanted
This house so haunted, won't ever let go of me
Don't say this house not haunted
This house is haunted like Hell on Earth for me
Don't say it's not what you wanted
This house so haunted, won't ever let go of me

Emma Ruth Rundle - Shadows of My Name

I've come here wasted and with selfish, saddened things
So that they'd de arrange the shadows of my name
Unfazed that I'm unfazed
Unveiled that I unveiled

What you've gone and done
What you've gone and done
What I've gone and done

I lay back in salt
Please forgive my name
I won't speak at all
Just to sing again

What you've gone and done
What you've gone and done
What I've gone and done

I lay back in salt
Please forgive my name
I won't speak at all
Just to sing again

I lay back in salt
Please forgive my name
I won't speak at all
Just to sing again

Emma Ruth Rundle - Savage Saint

For every son that was not met
And cry for every one that that set
Bury in shade
that we"ll never notice
Carry the weight on your tiny shoulders

Don't be ever forgotten
Savage saint
Quiet
Never come talking
little faint

Oh and how we begged for you
For all those things you can't undo
Quiet the blade that moves through daughters
Heavy the braid that breaks on your shoulders

Don't be ever forgotten, Savage Saint
Never draw blood in the garden, Faint
Don't be the name that's drawing shame and
Never let your heart harden
Little flame

I held him, his short life
In my hands, in my heart
I held him, his whole life
In my hands, in my heart

Don't be ever forgotten, Savage Saint
Never draw blood in the garden, Faint
Don't be the name that's drawing shame and
Never let your heart harden
Little fame

Emma Ruth Rundle - Arms I Know So Well

Oh boundless life were we to gain
From lost lands to the garden's gate
Its fear of the frozen and unhappy skies
Burnt now, burnt now, breathing only fire

And deliver me from all the evil I did to myself
And deliver me to arms so open, arms I know so well

As for the dead, they can raise themselves
In secret I sing for no one else
Its fear of open spaces I have travelled in
Come so far, dragged myself on this phantom limb

Please deliver me from all the evil I did to myself
And deliver me to arms so open, arms I know so well
