THIS
Music by Caroline Shaw, Jason Treuting and Sō Percussion
Words by Emily Brontë and Jason Treuting
This this
This this
The night is darkening round me,
The wild winds coldly blow;
But a tyrant spell has bound me,
And I cannot, cannot,
Cannot go.
The giant trees are bending
Their bare boughs weighed with snow;
And the storm is fast descending,
And yet I cannot, cannot,
Cannot go.
Clouds beyond
Clouds above
Wastes beyond
Wastes below
Clouds beyond above me
Wastes beyond below
But nothing drear can move me
I will not will not
Cannot go
The night is darkening round me
The wild winds coldly blow
A tyrant spell has bound me
And I
Cannot, cannot
Cannot go.
