The Arkbuilder’s Wife (Violent and Incoherent, the Winds Wept in the Valley.)

Send me an arkbuilder
Send me a stormchaser
Send me a dark winter
Send me a code breaker
Lay out the peat moss in neat straight rows
Line the windows with newspaper
Call for the wagons laden with supplies
Send me an oathbreaker

Send the wind, send the wind
Send the wind down
Send the wind, send the wind
Send the wind down

(Send) Send me an arkbuilder
I will be his assistant
I'll cut the lumber into even pieces
Siren songs growing dissonant
Send me an arkbuilder
I will be his bride
I'll give him shelter, he may give me warmth
One of every insecurity inside

Send the wind, send the wind
Send the wind down
Send the wind, send the wind
Send the wind down

It came from deep beneath the permafrost
(What a shame)
Taking the form of every fight you've lost
(What a shame)
Where there once grew a different kind of moss
(What a shame)
A burning pentecost
It came from deep beneath the permafrost
(What a shame)
Taking the form of every fight you've lost
(What a shame)
Where there once grew a different kind of moss
(What a shame)

(Sha-a-a-ame, sha-a-a-ame, sha-a-a-ame)
(Sha-a-a-ame, sha-a-a-ame, sha-a-a-ame)

Someone who loved you went and hurt you like they had done before
Another reason to recede from view and walk out the door
The endless trauma-cycle splits you out and now you've reborn
With all the demons that are eating at your innocent core
Somebody said they loved you while holding the blade to your throat
They won't acknowledge all the pain they rended unto your soul
And nothing makes sense and you're nothing if not always ignored
And it'll take all your life to try and settle the score

One, two, three, four

Send the wind, send the wind, send the wind
Send the wind, send the wind, send the wind
Send the wind, send the wind, send the wind
Send the wind, send the wind, send it down, down, down on me
Send the wind, send the wind, send the wind
Send the wind, send the wind, send the wind
Send the wind, send the wind, send the wind
Send the wind, send the wind, send it down, down, down on me
Send the wind, send the wind, send the wind

Send the wind, send the wind, send the wind
Send the wind, send the wind, send it down, down, down on me
Send the wind, send the wind, send the wind
Send the wind, send the wind, send the wind
Send the wind, send the wind, send the wind
Send the wind, send the wind, send it down, down, down on me
Send the wind, send the wind, send the wind
Send the wind, send the wind, send the wind
Send the wind, send the wind, send the wind
Send the wind, send the wind, send it down, down, down on me
