swallow the sun - with you came the whole of the world's tears lyrics

Loading...

[intro]
“saint peter, save me and send me down to h-ll
for i will find her there
where moonlight catches her scarlet hair”

“where she sings and black ravens circle above her
in the burning air.”

[verse 1]
silence your heart before it tears you apart
keep your eyes on the distant thunder
unfold your wings against the dark

[chorus]
my heart thrown to the lions
my soul fed to the wolves
arise, arise, arise
walk on your altar of sacrifice
and let the blood run for her

[post-chorus]
my heart thrown to the lions
my soul fed to the wolves
my body left for the winter
my eyes for the night

[verse 2]
with you came the whole of world’s tears
the sp-ce between the heartbeats
is where i felt you
a small death each and every time

[chorus]
my heart thrown to the lions
my soul fed to the wolves
arise, arise, arise
walk on your altar of sacrifice
and let the blood run for her

[bridge 1]
i stand straight at the front of my faith
to keep the last of my honor
but my legs won’t carry me anymore
paralyzed before the eyes of a hunter
i open up my veins for the parasites to come

[bridge 2]
silence your heart before it tears you apart
keep your eyes on the distant thunder
unfold your wings against the dark

[chorus]
my heart thrown to the lions
my soul fed to the wolves
arise, arise, arise
walk on your altar of sacrifice
and let the blood run for her

[post-chorus]
my heart thrown to the lions
my soul fed to the wolves
my body left for the winter
my eyes for the night

[outro]
“saint peter
save me and send me down to h-ll”

- swallow the sun
