Andrew Hozier-Byrne - In a Week lyrics

[Verse 1: Hozier] I have never known peace like the damp gra** 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 [Pre-Chorus 1: Karen Cowley and Hozier] 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 [Chorus: Karen Cowley and Hozier] 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 [Verse 2: Karen Cowley] 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 [Pre-Chorus 2: Karen Cowley and Hozier] 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 [Chorus: Karen Cowley and Hozier] And they'd find us in a week When the cattle 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 [Bridge: Karen Cowley and Hozier] And they'd find us in a week (We lay here for years or for hours) When the weather gets hot (So long we become the flowers) And they'd find us in a week (We lay here for years or for hours) When the cattle show fear (So long we become the flowers) [Outro: Karen Cowley and Hozier] 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 [Outro: Karen Cowley and Hozier] 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
