Lyrics

Bain of the breath how do I find you? Thin back the cranes left in sky As sacrifice, without last rite It falls on thee to judge most high In the pearl of a slummed day The spirit of us was felt as soft cry Yes, I'm sure you've inspired with love But one is more than you are of one It's time we say goodbye to fair Farewell to fate as wrung What makes thee thy true assassin You must ask, but yet you know As equals, as peoples As bred foes we are the same In parried odes to thy mountains The spirit of us was pungent laughter When every road is traveled hard When every tear is shed for dirt It's time we say goodbye to fair Farewell to fate wrung We'll leave our first kiss For another lifetime Another swell time Another springtime Another The voice of god is silence found The breath of life is borrowed toil Lift the cross, I'm falling down Peg the pale and brand forlorn They wouldn't cure, they needn't seal They wouldn't save an honest saviour's soul Count zero-zero Zero save zero Count zero-zero Zero save zero Zero save zero Zero save zero Zero save zero In shadowed apses chant my names Not by birth, but the ones thus claimed you Zero save zero Mother knew, but she couldn't know What they'd do and what they'd howl, yeah Zero save zero In situ, zero You think you're first You think you're last You feel you're chosen Choose what comes to pass Count zero-zero Zero save zero Count zero-zero Zero save zero Zero-zed-zero Zero save zero
