Tori Amos - Fearlessness

Fearlessness

Fearlessness blew in with the wind
Waking up to greet the sun
We sailed on like the ancient ones
Into the night underworld
We knew dangers would come
I had faith in both of us

Listen to your heart
(You can hear me)
Listen to your heart
(You can hear me)

Day turned night when he questioned
Why can't you balance the sky?
Souless storms have sent watchers
With bladeless weapons to fight

Teams of horses of the brine
Followed his cries through the fire
Demons of the wild hissed with the wind
Did you listen?

Listen to your heart
(Can you hear me?)
Listen to your heart
(Can you hear me?)

Fearlessness soon reminded me
You must be stronger then they
Cautioning there those who live
To be cruel for the fun of it

He let in a dark companion
That orbited between us
His siren friends convinced him that love
Was no match against storms to come
Their songs inflamed by doubt
Fearlessness drowned them out

Teams of horses of the brine
Followed his cries through the fire
Demons of the wild hissed with the wind
Did you listen?

Listen to your heart
Can you hear me?
Listen to your heart
Can you hear me?

Did we begin without knowing it?
To find fault in every gift
Then that was when the blame began
What were once two forces joined
In fearlessness
