lyrics

Hollywood
Slowly grows
No one knows
Just where you are
Chances have already flown
No one knows just what they were
Suddenly something breaks
and reappears
beneath the water
Scraps of light are falling down
Light as feathers of a loon
I’ve been trained by whips of Holly
To obey
if they should call for me
Dive into the scrying pool
No one knows
unless they look
Even though
it’s hard to see
Deep inside the garden where they grow
Suddenly the surface breaks
Your eyes pass through
and pierce still water
Looking up stare back down
You’re beneath the surface of the pool
I’ve been trained by whips of Holly
To obey if they should call for me
Holly wood grows beneath
Raise the coppice of the trees
Suddenly the season breaks
And the rule is changing hands violently
The surface breaks something falls
Provides obstruction
All we know holding hands
Beneath the surface
Of the stream
I’ve been trained by
whips of holly
To obey if they
should call for me
For I’ve been saved by
whips of Holly
Having placed each
scar upon my heart
