About this song
They took the roof off the hall, letting the cold rain fall. When her own angelic sisters turned to slaughter, Sigarda alone held the line. This is a song for the last uncorrupted angel, and the promise she made to humanity in the rain.
Lyrics
[Verse 1] They took the roof off the hall I keep, cold rain on the long grey floor. My own kind wanted me down in the killing, and asked for the ones at my door. [Hook] The roof is off my solar, the herons hold the sky. No one under my wing gets given away to die. [Verse 2] I searched for my sisters behind their eyes and found something else wearing their skin. I wept, and I took up the heron blade and stood with Thalia in the rain. [Hook] The roof is off my solar, the herons hold the sky. No one under my wing gets given away to die. [Turn] They call me true now. They call me the last. Neither is a name I asked to wear. I only want the count at dawn to match the count I made last night. [Hook] The roof is off my solar, the herons hold the sky. No one under my wing gets given away to die.
