Mandog

My breath is out before me
Sweat run to my eye
The way that I'd been told
Is not the way we die

Rounding every corner
Steady as it flies
Past the souls of others
Free now of the lie

Farther away a thunder rolls
Well on its way an end unfolds

Tranquil in its terror
Midnight serves me well
Stealing those around me
From nowhere

Watch the hour
Stakes are on the tower
High walled thunder
Drags you so far under

Farther away a thunder rolls
Well on its way an end unfolds

Darkened season brings a switch
And withered is our trust
Leaves you stolen damned blindsided
Cast down out of touch

Nearer sounds the voice of many
Fair the hand was not
Now it is that I'm reminded
Of all you forgot

Nearer sounds the voice of many
Fair the hand was not
Now it is that I'm reminded
Of all you forgot

Stole my time
Taint my sun
No more mine
Pain is one

Darkened season brings the switch
Withered is our trust
Leaves you stolen damned blindsided
Cast down out of touch

Leaves you stolen damned blindsided
Cast down out of touch

Now it is that I'm reminded
Of all that you forgot

Stole my time
Taint my sun
No more mine
Pain is one

Try to keep my wits at me
Pushin' on are you
Absorbed it all and much too soon
And so it is and there

And when I've said and spoken truth
And felt life in me rare
It was that I could sense a sense
That no one fucking cared

So it's to the end
Now there's a dead tomorrow
And you drive it in
To make sure I am done

But it's coming back on through
To keep on fucking you
Time to reap the pain
That you had borrowed
