Marrow made a wife of Eve
But no one gave up a rib for me and mine
My hearts did expose to the elements
Calloused and untouched by a man's design
Oh , my ugly organs
How lucky we are
Brick and mortar between my bones
Built a kingdom fierce and fortified
My name fading from the yellow page
Stones are laid upon the mountainside
Oh , my savage empire
How lucky we are
Never to be moved by the words of a liar
The dark doesn't frighten me
I chose to close my eyes
It is mine , it is mine
The night doesn't frighten me
I chose to let it thrive
It is mine , it is mine
Time has changed the metaphor
Now , dust is not the origin of bone
Little girl , don't let them sell you any armor
All your ribs are still your own
Oh , my precious child
How lucky you are
Handed down a shield for your tender parts
The dark doesn't frighten me
I chose to close my eyes
It is mine , it is mine
The night doesn't frighten me
I chose to let it thrive
It is mine , it is mine
The dark doesn't frighten me
I chose to close my eyes
It is mine , it is mine
The night doesn't frighten me
I chose to close my eyes
It is mine , it is mine
