Lyrics Deathwaltz - Esben and the Witch

Deathwaltz

A semblance of truth, this semblance of me
Strikes such a chord, it deafens my ears
Keep your head on, collect yourself
It’s all I can do to assemble myself
The hooks act quick, the barbs dig deep
With eagerness as the sickle reaps
I feel blood feathers, spike their way
The young buds shoot, with fresh new blades
A terrible thing, this terrible love
It’s all that I have, it’s all that I am
Let the knives out, hidden within
I’ll wash you away with all of my sins
The hooks act quick, the barbs dig deep
With eagerness as the sickle reaps
I feel blood feathers, spike their way
The young buds shoot, with fresh new blades
