lyrics
What If I separate the word or conjugate the verb?
Would it carry weight across the air?
Something phonetically occurred in me
Reverbed unheard syllabically
An astute untouched word
Resonated within me
In the hallowed halls
Where the dead well called
To die today, a day of death
Forgive the best, of their lies
I knew no other
God loved your mother
I knew no other words but mine.
There lies ahead a grave
A grave beside a bed
It's ahead a bed of
Roses
Supine and sun-spent
Wilted petal and concrete bent
The nature of this place and it's double face
I knew no other
God took your brothers
I knew no other words but mine.
What If I separate the word or conjugate the verb?
Would it carry weight across the air?
Something phonetically occurred in me
Reverbed unheard syllabically
You'll never catch a priest throwing soil over me.
