The Letters Lyrics


With quill and silver knife
She carved the poison pen
Wrote to her lover's wife
"Your husband's seed has fed my flesh"As if a leper's face
That tainted letter graced
The wife with choke-stone throat
Ran to the day with tear-blind eyesImpaled on nails of ice
And raked for emerald fire
The wife with soul of snow
With steady hand begins to write"I'm still, I need no life
To serve on boys and men
What's mine was yours is dead
I take my leave of mortal flesh"

Enjoy the lyrics !!!

Yann Tiersen (born June 23, 1970 in Brest, Brittany, France) has been honing his musical aesthetic since he could stand on two legs. He started learning piano at the age of four, taking up violin at the age of six and receiving classical training at musical academies in Rennes, Nantes and Boulogne. Then, at the age of 13, he chose to alter his destiny, breaking his violin into pieces, buying a guitar and forming a rock band.
