It won’t be long when morning comes We’ll pattern our adamantine waste A stranger waits along this road To take me home ♪ There is something when you draw near I destroy all things I hold dear Drink the light from a gibbet’s hand On an ailing shore, where it strands ♪ In every language I’ve confessed Its haunted name ♪ Where death opens her thighs Our paramour of broken tides You saw us die ♪ I’ve gathered myself ♪ There is something when you draw near I destroy all things I hold dear Drink the light from a gibbet’s hand ♪ On an ailing shore, where it strands ♪ For a vestige of closure In the pool of an eye That gained sight in a darkness That was long before night I come to say my name, I said I know he wants it where he goes I know it takes my lot to live I know it takes this world to die ♪ In mirrors digged up from the earth I see myself ♪ Lambent upon my childhood fields In wounds There is something when you draw near
I destroy all things I hold dear Drink the light from a gibbet’s hand
