lyrics

The earth rends beneath a rumbling call
Flinging harvest into windfall
As the gust takes off the garden gate
Sending tumbling towers of orange crates

And the hinges of our bedroom door
now dig trenches in our floorboards
The pavement cracks, the paint peels back
and we behold our black-eyed lord

Where are you now
When all the claws are out ripping into our mother's shroud
And is there truth
To the things you said in the feather bed where I lay next to you

And his limbs are hanging white and red
From the serpent with its fanged head
Oh god the teeth, venom beneath,
why take my brother in my stead
when it is I that should be dead

Where are you now
When all the claws are out ripping into the hardened ground
And is there hope
For the things you broke when you, careless, spoke of a place to go
far, far from home
