Our Reverend's Grave |
| There is a light at the end of the road |
| Where no birds sing and the cold wind blows |
| And a sign reads welcome home |
| Nearing the light the hour grows late |
| I wrap my fingers 'round the lock at the gate |
| Gonna call this place my home |
| Come down Moses, the mountain’s on fire |
| That brazen serpent in your hand |
| Your god has made me a liar |
| I bite my tongue or I’d be damned |
| I’ve opened the door |
| And crossed the threshold |
| I’m searching for more |
| And I’m calling your name |
| O! |
| at the end of life there’s nothing more |
| Begging for scraps at the master’s table |
| The table’s bare, the legs are unstable |
| I’ve never tasted a crumb |
| Sister, heal me, my side is on fire |
| Spear |
| Ichor |
| Wine |
| This thirst has made me a liar |
| I’ve never tasted it, but I’m told it’s divine |
| I’ve opened the door |
| And crossed the threshold |
| I’m searching for more |
| And did you call my name? |
| Well here I am, now where are you? |
| I thought for sure you said you’d be here to meet me. |
| But there’s nothing here but solitude |
| So is this my reward for believing? |
| Just tattered memories unravelled by insanity |
| At the end of life there’s nothing |
| If you come to my grave as darkness draws near |
| You’ll read no name, just these words: «I wish you were here.» |
| If you, come to my grave as darkness draws near |
| You will read no name, just these words: «I wish you were here.» |
| At the Reverend’s grave |
| Cry out |
| Here I am, now where are you? |
| I thought for sure you said you’d be here to meet me |
| But there’s nothing here but solitude |
| So is this my reward for believing |
| Just tattered memories unravelled by insanity |
| O! |
| at the end of life there’s nothing more |
