Lyrics to Doves
Doves, enter doves
Go, flood the aisles
With wings like water in the light
Shake oceans from the painted glass
Spear these doubts
Of your arrival
I pirouette, I pose, I bow
For candles I lit for myself
I arch my back, I spread my arms
I make a rapture out of
Waiting, waiting
Waiting, waiting
Doves, enter doves
Swarm, floor to bells
Bring down the sun in your mouths
Melt the angels
I drag my nails on blackened stone
I scratch my name in crooked rows
Trade sweat for wax and tears for smoke
I make a rapture out of
Waiting, waiting
Waiting, waiting
Waiting, waiting
Waiting, waiting
Doves
Doves
Doves
Doves
Doves
Doves
Doves
