Yosef This song stirs deep melancholy within me for some reason in a similar way that Roy Orbison does. I love this song. It feels very soulful to me.

lyrics

I was pulled to the dirt out from the womb
by the shackles ‘round my legs
They broke my arms and collarbone
for want that I not break my cage

In Mojave there are ravens the size of dogs
their feathers blacker than oiled night
They drill their eyes into you, my love
and sap the color from your sight

Never would have kept on fighting, but I knew one day
your tears would wash the blood away

Let passion choke lovers, but please
do not chide them when they fall
They know a better world than you or I
A world that is beautiful and small

Never would have kept on fighting, but I knew one day
your tears would wash the blood away
