Coil - Blood From the Air lyrics

A sleeping explorer, his wandering mind Crossed over the border A mind like a cemetery where the corpses are turning Where the bodies twist deep In the frozen grip of a dreamless sleep Then the lowest comes up Like a wreck from the depths He hears night calling and has dreams of waking Here in this brightness That burns like slow lightning He sees words burnt in ice And reads that the world is a wound And the body of Christ Effects of the animal, animal sound effects He says, "d**h, he is my friend He's promised me a quick end" The world is in pain And should be put down And God is a sadist And that he knows it The depths of the night skies Reflects in his eye He says, "Everything changes (Nine knives of ice) And everyone dies" And the night slits her veins And the darkness drains And the void rumbles in Like an underground train Forever comes closer The world is in pain We all must be shown, we must realise That everyone changes and everything dies
