"HINE-NUI-TE-PŌ" lyrics

"HINE-NUI-TE-PŌ"

You fear the teeth between my thighs
Carved from the flame of ancient time
I am the dark
I am the door
I am the silence after war
My womb is not your story to twist
My name's a curse upon your lips
My legs are mountains
You'll never shift
I am the judge
The pain and the pit

I do not rage
I do not plead
I caught the lie
I crushed the seed
This spell is won
The spirit sleep
You call it death
I call it peace

La-la-la-la-la
La-la-la
La-la-la-la-la-la-la
La-la-la-la-la-la-la-la
Oh ah

I do not rage
I do not plead
I caught the lie
I crushed the seed
I hold the thread
My hands are tied
I weave you in
And call you mine
