[Verse 1] So let the winter claim us Let the weeping skies descend I lean against the falling thing And call its breaking friend Your mouth is full of weather Your hands know where it bends What you unravel, I record What you undo, I see [Pre-Chorus] I keep the cracked-lit hour I keep the names you leave When the road turns to river You come back in the leaves [Chorus] My dark angel of the downpour You are the ground beneath my feet My dark angel of the downpour Stay where the broken meet What you unravel, I record What you undo, I see [Verse 2] The window shakes at midnight The basin holds the rain I find your shape in puddles Then lose it once again You wear the storm like holy cloth You wear the ruin clean I trace the line your shadow makes Across the thorned-up green [Pre-Chorus] I keep the cracked-lit hour I keep the names you leave When the road turns to river You come back in the leaves [Chorus] My dark angel of the downpour You are the ground beneath my feet My dark angel of the downpour Stay where the broken meet What you unravel, I record What you undo, I see [Bridge] If the roof gives way tonight I’ll still know your hand If the mud takes both our names I’ll still understand [Final Chorus] My dark angel of the downpour You are the ground beneath my feet My dark angel of the downpour Stay where the broken meet What you unravel, I record What you undo, I see My dark angel of the downpour You are the ground beneath my feet
