A woman limped down the frozen road, whispered soft as falling leaves. "A fire, a crumb, a place to rest, good folk, won’t you take me in?" A hand at the door, a shadow stretched long— they let her in, that’s where it begins. [Verse 2] She sat by the hearth, eyes like embers, smiling sharp behind her cup. Spoke in words that curled like ivy, spoke ‘til they couldn’t wake back up. Names unwound, like thread unraveling, thoughts fell loose, their past turned thin. Now they were hers, two hands to carry, two feet to walk where she had been. [Chorus] Kitta Grau, Kitta Grau, feet so light, never drag, never slow. Kitta Grau, Kitta Grau, got her way, got her pay, got new shoes now. [Verse 3] Down to the crossroads, dirt turned quiet, moon sat watching from the bend. She led them on, like sheep to water, led them where the road must end. And waiting there, a man all shadow, eyes like pitch, a grin like stone. He weighed the souls, found them worthy— and left her standing there alone. [Verse 4] But not empty, no, not weeping, no regrets and no goodbyes. For in her hands, a gift hard leathered, boots black-shined as midnight skies. She slipped them on, took three steps forward, felt them bite and fit just right. And as she walked, the road walked with her, long and stretching out of sight. [Chorus] Kitta Grau, Kitta Grau, feet so light, never drag, never slow. Kitta Grau, Kitta Grau, got her way, got her pay, got new shoes now. [Bridge] Silver fades, prayers fall quiet, iron rusts and salt blows thin. Some get lost, some go walking, some don’t come back again. [Verse 5] Some say hunger, some say cunning, some say she just loves the chase. But if she knocks, if she whispers, don’t let her in, don’t see her face. For when she goes, she leaves with something, something more than what she found. Two less names, two less footsteps, and her own still walking sound. [Final Chorus] Kitta Grau, Kitta Grau, feet so light, never drag, never slow. Kitta Grau, Kitta Grau, got her way, got her pay, got new shoes now.
