Died In The Wool
David Sylvian

Is this how they’ll find her?

Pale blue frock coat

Snagged full of needles

Belly full of sunshine


And what will they do without him?

Now she’s gone

What will they do without him?


The sheep on the hill

The herd in the darkness

Startled by thunder

Gathered for safety


They dressed her in wool coats

And what will they do without him?

Now she’s gone

What will they do..?


The hair that was blonde

Is matted and brown

The heft of her body impresses the ground

Softened by rainfall, soaked right through


The lightening sky in the darkening blue

And what will they do, now she’s gone?


Give her your shoes boy

Lend her some threads

A fine line of linen stripped from your bed


What’s with the face, child?



The smaller the bird the closer it stood

Coming still closer from the edge of the woods

In the down of the den six hearts lie beating


The ground softens up

And welcomes her in

You’ve been gone so long honey

Where have you been?


You’re destined for better

Surely nothing so cruel

What was unwritten

Died in the wool


The hair that was blonde

Is matted and brown

The weight of her body impresses the ground

Softened by rainfall, soaked right through


The lightening sky in the darkening blue

And what will they do, now she’s gone?


Is this how they’ll find her?

Last ounce of courage

Face full of sunshine
