Amandine Iron Wings Lyrics

you gave us iron wings
and solid iron feathers
to soar on the northern winds
and fly in any weather

but this town is a magnet
it pulls us from the sky
it brings us back into its arms
and hold us down inside

you gave us iron hands and solid iron fingers
to build on other lands
a home that'll always linger

but this town is a whirlwind
it tears our buildings down
it brings us back into its arms
and holds us down inside
