Lyrics

0:25I have never known peace like the damp grass
0:31That yields to me
0:38I have never known hunger like these insects
0:44That feast on me
0:50A thousand teeth and yours among them I know
1:00Our hungers appeased our heart beats becoming slow
1:14We'll lay here for years or for hours
1:19Thrown here or found to freeze or to thaw
1:25So long we'd become the flowers
1:30Two corpses we were two corpses I saw
1:36And they'd find us in a week
1:41When the weather gets hot
1:47After the insects have made their claim
1:52I'll be home with you I'll be home with you
2:03I have never known sleep like this slumber
2:08That creeps to me
2:16I have never known colors like
2:20This morning reveals to me
2:31And you haven't moved an inch such
2:36That I would not know
2:42If you sleep always like this
2:45Flesh calmly going cold
2:55We'll lay here for years or for hours
3:00Your hand in my hand so still and discreet
3:06So long we'd become the flowers
3:12We'd feed well the land and worry the sheep
3:17They'd find us in a week
3:23When the cattle'd show fear
3:28After the insects have made their claim
3:33After the foxes have known our taste
3:39I'll be home with you I'll be home with you
3:44And they'd find us in a week
3:50When the weather gets hot
3:55And they'd find us in a week
4:01When the cattle'd show fear
4:06And they'd find us in a week
4:12When the buzzards get loud
4:17After the insects have made their claim
4:23After the foxes have known our taste
4:28After the raven has had his say
4:33I'll be home with you I'll be home with you
4:39I'll be home with you I'll be home with you
4:44I'll be home with you I'll be home with you
I have never known peace like the damp grass
That yields to me
I have never known hunger like these insects
That feast on me
A thousand teeth and yours among them  I know
Our hungers appeased  our heart beats becoming slow
We'll lay here for years or for hours
Thrown here or found  to freeze or to thaw
So long  we'd become the flowers
Two corpses we were  two corpses I saw
And they'd find us in a week
When the weather gets hot
After the insects have made their claim
I'll be home with you  I'll be home with you
I have never known sleep like this slumber
That creeps to me
I have never known colors like
This morning reveals to me
And you haven't moved an inch such
That I would not know
If you sleep always like this
Flesh calmly going cold
We'll lay here for years or for hours
Your hand in my hand  so still and discreet
So long  we'd become the flowers
We'd feed well the land and worry the sheep
They'd find us in a week
When the cattle'd show fear
After the insects have made their claim
After the foxes have known our taste
I'll be home with you  I'll be home with you
And they'd find us in a week
When the weather gets hot
And they'd find us in a week
When the cattle'd show fear
And they'd find us in a week
When the buzzards get loud
After the insects have made their claim
After the foxes have known our taste
After the raven has had his say
I'll be home with you  I'll be home with you
I'll be home with you  I'll be home with you
I'll be home with you  I'll be home with you
