At Zero Below

(albüm: Straight Songs Of Sorrow - 2020)

On a night I can't forget
I burned my love with a cigarette
My telescopic eye had seen
The grass on graves so evergreen

"How would you know", she said
"To choke, to seize in vain to call?"
"What do you know", she said
"Of toxic tears chemical sprawl?"

"How would you know", she said
"To moan, to cry and still to crawl?"
At zero below she's dead
Asleep inside the churchyard wall

In this dream I can't forget
I set an arson fire without a one regret
The camera in my cornea
Took black and whites from my collection of

"Wait'll you see", she said
"That moment just before you fall"
"How much you'll bleed?" she said
"You'll lay there bleeding like a dog"

On a night so gray and wet
Into somebody's face I spit
So angry and illiterate
My inner furnace quickly lit

"You're gonna know", she said
"What they really mean by Hell"
"You're gonna know", she said
"For who they ring that heavy bell"

At zero below and dead
We are together, now and on

In this dream I can't forget
I burned my love with cigarette
The camera of my eye had seen
The grass on graves so evergreen

"You're gonna know", she said
"What they really mean by Hell"
"You're gonna know", she said
"For who they ring that heavy bell"

At zero below and dead
We lay together now and on
We lay together now and on
We lay together now and on
We lay together now and on
We lay together now and on, yeah
