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

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 Los Angeles, California
“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..."
