Lyrics

With shell and shot
You’ve come to talk

To whom does this Wood
Belong?

Sheath my claws?
Share a fence with you
And live?

You think my
Coat and claws

Perhaps,
Mean I’m dull?

I invite
You to war on me
And die
Come die with me

If I could Buy your death with mine
Would I?

If I could Buy your death with mine
Should I?

If I could Buy your death with mine
Would I?

If I could Buy your death with mine
Should I?

Let us see what
Slights we can bear

Or burn the World
To erase the scent of you?

Will you be satisfied
With this bribe?

Or will I make My last
Meal of you?

Tear your heart
With these hands
Or to pull
down your face

Sun is now
Find the glow
Grow the Blade
from this Hand

The last time
Breathe this air
let it free
lungs unclean

break the earth
without nails
We’ll consume
Clear blue sky

Break this bond
Silent space
Drift aside
Fragment whole

harbor mist
Flower gold
Shadow low
Cold is now
