lyrics

Blackout - Beggar the Thief

How deep is the water here
Something soft recedes beneath my feet
Lost in the slime lit streets
In one hand infinity
(the other a rusted blade of a lost crusade)

Drinking from the neon puddles that trap - distort the light
Foreign words but the warnings are the same
Morality drips into gutters of shame
Is it time to change my name again?

I jumped before I realised how deep the water was - swim to the island but if we go we both must drown
One is reaching out
One is going down

Blackout if I don’t remember what I did - does it still count?
One is craving hearth and home
One is wanting out

Stale as the morning sold as the night
Someone is coming turn out the light

All of this takes time
Nightmares that bleed from your dreams to mine

A bride so young a smoking gun
Two decades yet she’d not become
Beg for me steal for me
What did they borrow
Lend me your soul I’ll return it tomorrow

All of this takes time
The nightmares
A bride so young
2 decades more still on the run

Wild fettered screams fill your cage from mine

Halo first trick of the night
Moth and woman circle the street light
Meet me by the riverside

There are dead things in the water one of us must drown
One is thrashing wildly
One is going down

All of this takes time

Who is the beggar who is the thief
Choke back the bile, pull down the veil
Why am I so hollow
Who is?

Cover the sorrow?
