Karuwhā

Meet me in the nothingness before dawn
Help me to cut all the ties that I have drawn
And let me down gently

How does the taniwha know my name?
Did you tell him all my secrets, did you spill all my pain?
If you did, let me down gently

Cause this is the hour, this is the place
This is the hour, I can see it in your face
When all is erased

How can you pass me like a train in the night?
I can't believe me that you once were my love and my light
But you let me down so gently

I wake in this valley full of dark dreams
'Cause the blood from the land wars cries here from buried deep
The Pākeha says: "well, didn't we let them off now, pretty gently?"

Cause this is the hour, this is the place
This is the hour, I can see it in your face
Cause this is the hour, this is the place
This is the hour I can see it in your face
When all is erased
