the loud lament - cockroach prophets lyrics

Loading...

i sit still and watch a falling leaf
as my day it rushes to evening’s p-ss
but, friend, there are yet words to say

i hide the truth in every line
for none to see and none to pry
that’s how i keep my wretched pride

who’s to say – my sacred woe
it comes too fast, then it comes too slow
i take my cue from your device

i sit by a fire though i need a spark
my coat is burnt, i enjoy the dark
it’s a picture but i’ll just say the words –

with life and death on an equal scale
i walk and hope to leave a trail
but my fear lies on either side

and as i kneel and bend
my loud lament
is all i leave behind

in their graves all my heroes lie
i draw my breath from their every sigh
i shake a fist at the crowd in the sky

when love serve as my only guide
i turn my gaze to warmer eyes
and leave my fate to your device

radiant in all your clever phases
with your word the ground shakes and then it raises
for me a path to walk

and lo’ there’re islands before my gaze
and there seems a place fit to raise
all i’ve seen

and as i give in to your truth
my loud lament –
i leave behind
