lyrics

- niqāb blue -


There's a girl out there
with a niqāb headdress
and the only sight that shines

is her heart-filled eyes
that belie the distress
of this old donned disguise

you won't see her passing
she don't say hello
noone gets to meet her smile

it's been a lonely ceremony
this last while



there's a knowing stare
when she meets a sister
but it's no more than a pause

in her weighed-down days
all because of some old crazy clause

she won't lose her habit
this honour bestowed
they say that it's the latest style

but it's been a lonely ceremony
this
last while
