Larry And His Flask - Log, Hearth, and Ash lyrics

There are others in this house, I hear them calling from the outer rooms Log, hearth and ash under stale kerosene fumes Footsteps in the saddening snow lead me farther from this place Second chair drums keeping swaggering pace But there are few who know where I'm going And few who know where I've been Not again I've burned my desire, placed it upon the pyre Seen the floors cave in and our hearts swell within Turned water into piss, felt sodden and soiled from a wretched kiss Filled an ocean with tears, all within just 27 years Spare me the compa**ion that other men might show All has been lost in the harvest moon glow With hateful embers in my chest, I'll go wandering through the night With godspeed I'll travel downward hence the light But there are few who know where I'm going And few who know where I've been Not again I've burned my desire, placed it upon the pyre Seen the floors cave in and our hearts swell within Turned water into piss, felt sodden and soiled from a wretched kiss Filled an ocean with tears, all within just 27 years The pages of my time-worn life, written in blood The skin will peel, the wounds won't heal Awaiting the flood I've burned my desire, placed it upon the pyre Seen the floors cave in and our hearts swell within Turned water into piss, felt sodden and soiled from a wretched kiss Filled an ocean with tears, all within just 27 years
