Tears are running off the knife onto his vest Isaac, lying gagged, is blinking SOS Then I got my leg all tangled in the briar Everyone relaxed and threw me on the fire When I woke I lay upon a forest floor There was a vibration deep within my horns I was pulled up to my feet by hands unseen Over to the mirrors round the redwood trees I’ve suspended many things for You I have done things You will not explain (even to me) Over, over Bring them over Bring all your knives to me Over, over Bring them over Here, under redwood trees Over, over Bring them over Bring all your sons to me

Was It You 04:33
Was it You who laid the darkness low Who breathed life into the morning star You who shook out the earth by its edges Did You tell the light where it could shine On the bodies of my enemies Did You break their arms off as they raised them up Have You seen how I look around when I feel You near Do You know how I long to feel Your breath on me To feel something – Some part of You cover me Was it You who held the waters back Who caused my life to ebb away Who suspended the world over nothing Was it You who put my marrow there Can You sever every cord in me Can You fill my home with honey and muscatel Have You seen how I look around when I feel You near Do You know how I long to feel Your breath on me To feel something – Some part of You cover me

“Bodies Of Water's music is a slippery conflation of punk spirit, folk expressionism, bombastic theatricality and old-fashioned testifying. It's like a church social gone horribly awry..."
