Rising Appalachia - Oh Death текст песни

Исполнитель: Rising Appalachia

альбом: Wider Circles


Oh, Death
Oh, Death
Won't you spare me over for another year?
Oh, Death
Oh, Death
Won't you spare me over for another year?
Mother came unto my bed
Placed a towel upon my head
Head is warm, my feet are cold
Death is moving upon my soul
Oh, Death
Oh, Death
Won't you spare me over for another year?
Oh, Death
Oh, Death
Won't you spare me over for another year.
Oh, Death, how you're treating me
You close my eyes so I can't see
Hurting my body, you make me cold
You run my life right out of my soul
Oh, Death
Oh, Death
Won't you spare me over for another year?
Oh, Death
Oh, Death
Won't you spare me over for another year?
Oh, the young, the rich, the poor
Makes no difference who you are
No wealth, no land
No silver, no gold
Nothing satisfies but your soul
Oh, Death
Oh, Death
Won't you spare me over for another year?
Oh, Death
Oh, Death
Won't you spare me over for another year?
And no, Death, keep your hands off my chest
I keep waiting for one final breath
I know I may not pass this test
But oh, Death
Oh, Death, oh, Death
Death, Death
Oh, Death, I'll raise my eyes to the sky
Give me great feathered wings to fly
But please, now is not my time to die
So, oh, Death
Oh, Death, oh, Death
Death, Death
I've been speaking with the dead
Removed from my physical proximity
But riling through my lungs, oxygen
Regimented pain, reminding me of purpose
As I hurl myself
Unflinching, unblinking
Into the glow of luminescent tomorrows
Without you, I have been speaking with the dead
She was reluctant to reveal my amputated dreams
But keeps me in her good graces
'Cause I love her
I have to tell her
There are those who would defame you
Sprinkling disreputable memories in the well water of your goodness
Those discontents roaming aimlessly
Shouting voices unheard
She speaks to me in dreams
Her melancholic whispers prevent my fevered reconsiderations
She knows
She showed me my future, became my past
That seemed like the same breath
In my rememberance
I explode backwards
My rarely punculated heartbeat
Runs on setencing me daily again to begin without her
Those lingering pomegranate sunsets ready me for her meticulous inspection
We see the same stars
And I will continue building this legacy we started together
Grateful that she armed me with conviction in my condemnation
Will not falter in her absense
I will luminate every horizon revealed to me
'Cause I'm not angry
My insomniatic refusals to continue conversations we started
When she was in the flesh no longer
Called from my ranker
Though, there are days that her presence is skin I've never shed
There are days when the rustling of leaves resembles her laughter and I spin on my heels
Seeking her face in a box of dead trees
There are days when I miss her like teeth
But I promise, I'm not angry anymore
Because I know she would've given her life to be here
And I am here
Eagerly awaiting the blanket of stars to cover me so that when slumber finally takes me
She and I, we will continue this conversation
Oh, Death
Oh, Death
Won't you spare me over for another year?
Oh, Death
Oh, Death
Won't you spare me over for another year?
