Laura Mvula - Golden Ashes Lyrics

I wore them pretty colours and fancy feathers
Thought I could walk on water just like no other

Sometimes I don't wake up from dreaming
I'm shook from bleeding
And my screaming sound like angels
No sign of danger

There she go makin' dem wolf cry, oh-oh
There she go makin' dem tears cry, ooh

Don't let me drown again, no
I lost my way again, I give in
Please don't let me drown again, oh no
I lost my way again, I give in

I cry the whole day long, pour my tears in a sad song
Them scary power people tell me I'm no equal
They feast like hungry lions, but I'm halfway up to Zion

There she go makin' dem wolf cry, oh-oh-oh
There she go makin' dem tears cry, ooh

Don't wait for me to die
You'll be waiting a long time
Even if the walls are caving in
I'll be listening

Don't let me drown again, no
I lost my way again, I give in
Please don't let me drown again, oh no
I lost my way again, I give in

Don't let me drown again, no
I lost my way again, I give in
Please don't let me drown again
I lost my way again

Don't let me drown again, no
I lost my way again, I give in
Please don't let me drown again (Please don't let me drown again)
I lost my way again (I lost my way)

Don't let me drown again
Don't let me drown
Don't let me drown again
