Spirit - Nieves

And I don’t know why

It’s a war of attrition and

I’m losing to both of the sides

I prayed to a God when I knew

That I had no right

I denounced my faith

As a child of science and sacrifice

I have not heard my voice

In such a long time

It’s a sound I do not know

The tone unrecognised

I’ll push out every word

And hope it feels right

Theres a dread inside of me

That I can’t pacify

Water from the river is running dry

A spirit from an older and simpler time
