Top Comments of this video!! :3
After a while of listening to and reading the lyrics, I'm starting to believe that the "she" Aurora is singing about is mother nature, it makes a lot of sense ^^ "stealing from the trees of Eden" (fairly self explanatory), "we cry for those you burned beneath the flame" (perhaps alluding to the wildfires that have ravaged the Earth), "everything you touch will be hers" (referring to the damage we leave that she has to deal with), "a mother with no heart will give love" (she is a metaphor, and by saying nature is a woman, it highlights how she cares for the things she creates, everything fits perfectly into place, animals, without knowing it, help each other to survive, and it's all because she has made it that way. She is not a human, she has no heart, but she is a presence that offered the perfect world to us), "her love is yours but only if you give your heart to her" (we must care for the world, allow mother nature to return to her duties without negative interference from humans, and we will be rewarded with a healed world). This is how I interpreted it ^^
After looking through the replies to my comment, I understand that my interpretation of it is not what Aurora intended! Still, it is still a beautiful song, regardless of which way you interpret it

I'm a 52 year old man who discovered Aurora a few weeks ago... I've gone down the rabbit hole and listened to everything... Aurora is as important as Elizabeth Frazer or Siouxsie Sioux. Maybe more. What a unique beautiful soul! What a song writer!
I'm an old fart gen-Xer and now I'm a warrior and weirdo through and through!

Lyrics
She bargains with the world
So everything she wants will come to her
With no greed inside her mind
She knows what she deserves
We fell from sky with grace
And landed in her soft and warm embrace
She gave her love, her gift of life
So we could live with her
That is why we live like heathens
Stealing from the trees of Eden
Living in the arms of freedom
And everything we touch is evil
That is why we live like heathens
The stone, the dirt, the dust
The unforgiving promise made to us
Unworthy of your light, your god, your touch
We're guided by the lust
We cry the fallen names
We cry for those who burned beneath the flame
We stand besides the good and brave
The broken and enslaved
That is why we live like heathens
Stealing from the trees of Eden
Living in the arms of freedom
And everything we touch is evil
That is why we live like heathens
Everything you touch
Will be
Hers
Our mother with no heart
Will give
Love
Her love is yours
But only if you give your heart to her
That is why we live like heathens
Stealing from the trees of Eden
Living in the arms of freedom
And everything we touch is evil
That is why we live like heathens
That is why we live like heathens
That is why we live like heathens
