Lyrics
She don’t keep a record
Of the wrongs that we will carry
She is hell-bent and wary
She was always quick to cry
And hope is swooping circles
That she used to be afraid of
The shapes that she is made of
Well it happens they can fly

[Chorus]
And she don’t believe in Jesus
Not the way you think she should
But it’s mercy that she’s holding
And she’s holding on for good

Well she’s aching at the edges
Yeah she’s breaking at the seams
She has always been a dreamer
But her midnight’s closing in
She’s a vessel and a healer
Love can pick its poison
She is swallowing the noise
And she is staying till we win

[Repeat Chorus]

[Bridge]
Bring your tired and huddled masses
Bring your yearning to breathe free
Bring your never was and hasbeens
Bring your desperate liberty
She is mothering the exiles
She is coming home for more
She is holding back the lightning
She is lighting up the shore

[Repeat Chorus]
[Repeat Chorus]
