White Chalk Songtext / Lyric

White chalk hills are all I've known

White chalk hills will rot my bones

White chalk sticking to my shoes

White chalk playing as a child with you






White chalk sands against time

White chalk cutting down the sea at night

I walk the valleys by the surf

On a path cut 1500 years ago



And I know

These chalk hills will rot my bones



Dorset's cliffs meet at the sea

Where I walked our unborn child in me

White chalk poor scattered land



Scratched my palms

There's blood on my hands
