Miner's Canary Lyrics
[Verse 1]
I will sing to keep the peace
Down below in the cage you built for me
A cave of echoes
A miner's canary
[Verse 2]
You were older, you knew the way
To keep me breathing even though the air was thin
There was no oxygen
A miner's canary
[Chorus]
Lead me, slowly
I am your detective
A living warning sign
Kill me slowly
As I keep you company
I'll be keeping time
[Verse 3]
A sentinel so sensitive
You have to lose me just to feel the state you're in
You're bound to darkness
A miner's canary
[Chorus]
Lead me, slowly
I am your detective
A living warning sign
Kill me slowly
As I keep you company
I'll be keeping time
I will sing to keep the peace
Down below in the cage you built for me
A cave of echoes
A miner's canary
You were older, you knew the way
To keep me breathing even though the air was thin
There was no oxygen
A miner's canary
Lead me, slowly
I am your detective
A living warning sign
Kill me slowly
As I keep you company
I'll be keeping time
A sentinel so sensitive
You have to lose me just to feel the state you're in
You're bound to darkness
A miner's canary
Lead me, slowly
I am your detective
A living warning sign
Kill me slowly
As I keep you company
I'll be keeping time
