Blood Upon the Snow - Hozier/Bear McCreary

Lyrics by：Hozier

Composed by：Hozier/Bear McCreary

To all things housed in her silence

Nature offers a violence

The bear that keeps to his own line

The wolf that seeks always his own kind

The world that hardens as the harsher winter holds

The parent forced to eat its young before it grows

Every bird gone unheard

Starving where the ground has froze

The winter sun rise red on white

Like blood upon the snow

Like blood upon the snow

The ground walked here is a wonder

It ceases never to hunger

And all things nature's given

She takes all things back from the living

I've walked the earth and there are so few here that know

How dark the night

And just how cold the wind can blow

I've no more hunger now to see where the road will go

I've no more kept my warmth

Than blood upon the snow

Blood upon the snow

Blood upon the snow

Blood upon the snow

It's not my arms that will fail me

But this world takes more strength than it gave me

The trees deny themselves nothing that makes them grow

No rain fall no sunshine

No blood upon the snow

Blood upon the snow

Blood upon the snow

Blood upon the snow

To all things housed in her silence

Nature offers a violence
