about

this song is based on the third book of philip pullman’s his dark materials. it’s about the land of the dead bit. i love these books so much please read them all

lyrics

faltering feet, i need to keep my head
a still beating heart cautiously leading the dead
for once there's hope on every ghostly face
trudging to their freedom
through this stagnant place

they call out in their shadow colours
in the
night

their whole faces are shadow covered
but i’ve got
the knife

they’ll see your worst
screaming from the sky
be careful
it’s worse if you lie

but tell them stories
they’ll let you out
follow them through
and float up to the clouds
follow them through
and float up to the

if you want to see the world again
then you should
try

you can go through the darkest tunnel
and find the
light
