bite and swallow Letra

If I stay too quiet

I can hear her walking by

Death cold air is moving

Like the touch of her handRespect dying, towards our eyes

Earth dies, flowers dead

Silent whispers slowly flow

The silence from beyondYou'll come with me my precious light

You stalk me through the shadows

Just swallow the darkYou'll come with me my precious light

You stalk me through the shadows

Just swallow the darkI've fought to take you back

Cause my day is still burningMy scream is flowing through hands

But your flesh ignitingI'm taking you down to the hole

Bring on the scum for the flamesYou'll come with me my precious light

You stalk me through the shadows

Just swallow the darkYou'll come with me my precious light

You stalk me through the shadows

Just swallow the darkIf I stay too quiet

I can hear her walking by

If I stay too quiet

I can hear her walking by

Death cold air is moving

Like the touch of her handRespect dying, towards our eyes

Earth dies, flowers dead

Silent whispers slowly flow

The silence from beyondYou'll come with me my precious light

You stalk me through the shadows

Just swallow the darkYou'll come with me my precious light

You stalk me through the shadows

Just swallow the darkI've fought to take you back

Cause my day is still burningMy scream is flowing through hands

But your flesh ignitingI'm taking you down to the hole

Bring on the scum for the flamesYou'll come with me my precious light

You stalk me through the shadows

Just swallow the darkYou'll come with me my precious light

You stalk me through the shadows

Just swallow the darkIf I stay too quiet

I can hear her walking by

Swallow the venom

On the arctic plains of my frozen soul

It's hard to survive, to remain alive

So dead inside, deathtrippin' scenes

Sometimes it cuts each time I breath Encased in ice my spirit filled with frigid bile

Freezing point, travelling toward the poison fog

Seeking heat from fatal liquids proved to kill

I'll burn at any cost

Swallow the venom

On a burn, watching lava devour the cold

Lost in a frost, blood on the snow

Suicidal jump through the psychedeathic door

Into the mighty flame Swallow the venom

Dope for you and me

I guess the state agrees

To keep us silent and dumb

To swallow in our wants Obedient mass is what they need

Like a shepherd has his herd to feed

Following its master's steps

To the abattoir we're being led

your pussys a sand box full of cat shit that no spade or white pail would move.

sword swallowing is relaxing your throat, breathing through your nose -

trying not to scrape against the blade.

let the dick shit or get off smoking my pot,

my smoke isnt greener than the money it costs.

(Follow the swallows, follow)If your dreams fall apart

And despair fills your heart

You just follow the swallows back home(Follow the swallows)If the clouds hide your star

And you wander too far

You just follow the swallows back homeThese are the words my Mother said

As her hands held mine

Everyone finds a place in the sun

When you find true love divineNow I know that it's true

For the day I found you

I followed the swallows back home(These are the words my Mother said)

As her hands held mine

Everyone finds a place in the sun

When you find true love divineNow I know that it's true

For the day I found you

I followed the swallows back home

Look out, look out, Phoenix cried

My time must be at hand

I'm feeling cold and I don't know why

The ground moves where I stand

All the lies she gave to me

In words that twist and bend

Now the only place for me is down in the swallow wind Far off and long ago

She came when I was young

A silver moon shining in her eyes

And strange the song she sang

All so easy I trusted her

I thought she was my friend

Now the only place for me is down in the swallow wind And I don't really know what to tell you now

It's something I just can't control

I thought you wanted to take my love

Now you want my soulLast I saw her

She was standing in the sand

The ashen moon was in her hair

And a cross was in her hand

I'm sailing alone she cried

Though I can't believe I sinned

Now the only place for me is down in the swallow wind

Oh my darlin' can find a way out, Oh my darlin' am I be followed

Oh my darlin' can we all still stay out, Oh my darlin' are we being swallowed

Oh my darlin' can find a way out, Oh my darlin' am I be followed

Oh my darlin' can we all still stay out, Oh my darlin' are we being swallowedHey now oh no, don't wanna let it go

Tell me my baby, am I being swallowed? Tell me my baby, am I being swallowed?

Hang on relax, don't wanna hold you back

Tell me my baby, am I being swallowed? Tell me my baby, am I being swallowed?

Tell me my baby, am I being swallowed? Tell me my baby, am I being swallowed?Oh my darlin' have they all been lieing, Oh my baby what's the use of trying

Oh my darlin' tell me am I movin', Oh my baby tell me I'm improving

Oh my darlin' can you all still see me, Oh my baby can you see they're leaving

On a train hiding in the forest, leaving lonely, little messes for usHey now oh no, don't wanna let it go

Tell me my baby, am I being swallowed? Tell me my baby, am I being swallowed?

Hang on relapse, don't wanna hold you back

Tell me my baby, am I being swallowed? Tell me my baby, am I being swallowed?

I am going on, finding a low land

I am going alone, in my head

I hold on, don't let it rest

Can't swallow me up again

I am going on, finding a low land

I am going alone, in my head

I hold on, don't let it rest

Can't swallow me up againHey now oh no, don't wanna let it go

Tell me my baby, am I being swallowed? Tell me my baby, am I being swallowed?

Hang on relapse, don't wanna hold you back

Tell me my baby, am I being swallowed? Tell me my baby, am I being swallowed?

Tell me my baby, am I being swallowed? Tell me my baby, am I being swallowed?

I'll cut your tongue out of your mouth

And wear your fingers

Everyone said I won't

Everyone, everyoneI'll use your teeth for my crown

But I don't need it (Need it, need it)

Feel your face when it rips

I've seen it, I've seen itSuffer and swallow (Suffer and swallow)

You know there's no tomorrow

(You know there's no tomorrow)

I did this for you

Suffer and swallow (Suffer and swallow)

I know what you are

I know what you areKeep you awake 'til the kill

You're never (Coming back)

Feel your soul going limp

Every second, every second of itNot with a scream or a sigh

Cut slits above your eyes

Make yourself so weak

Too bad that you can't spеakI'm concentrating

Just get down on your knees

I want to take my time to break you down

I feel like breathing

I feel like breathing fumes

I want to take my time

Is there any other way? (I know what you are)Suffer and swallow (Suffer and swallow)

You know there is no tomorrow

(You know there is no tomorrow)

I did this for youSuffer and swallow (Suffer and swallow)

I know what you are

I know what you are

I know what you are

I know what you are

I know what you areYou know there's no tomorrow

I know what you are

I know what you are

I know what you areYou know there's no tomorrow

I know what you are

I know what you are

I know what you are

I know what you are

I know what you are

johnny's on a sailboat called "the 7 seas"

and he's sailing to the islands of mysteries

and there's something in his eyes i can't define

a reflection of a different space and time

and jennifer's a shy girl, sitting by the window pane

gazing at the writing of the falling rain

but she's not waiting for a breakthrough of the sun

she's just sitting there and watching, having fun

in swallow paradise, so long, bye bye...

...

dosing in the shadows at the foot of a tree

and watching a swallow fly by

it's streaking past by chance than getting lost again

while everything is merging with the light

that shines on swallow paradise

so long, bye bye...

A peerless depth is where you're at

And I'm still treading water just over your shoulder

A hole in your wall, in your bedroom after all

And I'm still over your shoulder, taking in waterWoah, woah

Woah, woahWe look to the sky but the swallows block the light

Tread water with me and we can swallow the seaIt's funny how the walls talk

Especially holes in bedroom walls

But they don't want to talk to me

They don't need to come cleanIt's okay to pretent these walls aren't my friends

Their holes have told me more than I care for

Their holes have told me more than I care forWoah, woah

Woah, woahThe light comes in patches now through the fog and the salt and the clouds

I wanted it to come this way so I could quietly slip away

Tread water with me, we can swallow the seaMaybe it's my convict blood?Maybe it's our convict blood?Tread water with me, we could swallow the sea

Balancing on the wind

Leaning on the cliff edge wind, in limbo

He watched sand running through the fingers

of his left hand into the palm of his right

He sees someone walking in a hot dry wasteland

Young, hesitant steps

Recognised her crooked fring and narrow eyes

Threadbare, summer patterned, dirty cotton flowered dress

Scratched ankles and nail bitten hands

Wanted to touch her cool brown hair

But she was gone...

And his old tired face was as still as ever

An aeroplane hummed high up in the sky

Way up above the cloudsA green teapot, a pair of boots

A broken pocket, watch and chain

A born dead baby pig

Lying, pure white... bloodless

Soft and smooth as a gloved lady's hand

A spinning wheel, a bill hook

An umbrella, empty bottles, a tin bath

A hat stand and a slate grey pill box hat

Sailed past his grabbing hands

And were gone... like the swallowsStuttered words, stuttered words

Voices asking questions he cannot hear

Come and find us

Step back or you'll fall

But the aeroplane is humming so loud now

Trying to cling to the summer cotton

Light threadbare patterned sleeveless

Flowered dirty carnation sunflower

Sweatstained primrose threadbare

Dirty disappearing decaying flowered

Fading cotton forgotten fucking summer dress

But it was gone...

Gone like the swallows

A young man was he and he sailed on the sea

But a longin' came in to his heart

He breathed a great sigh for he must say goodbye

To the seaport this message he'd sendFly pretty swallow fly to the seashore

Back to the one who's waiting for me

Tell her I'm coming back to the seashore

Back from the sea for she's anchored my heart

[ ac.guitar ]

Now an old man is he and he sail every sea

For his young bride she died long ago

With his life at its end and the sea is only friend

Once more this message he sentFly pretty swallow fly to the seashore

Back to the cabin that I built for my bride

That's where she's sleeping there by the seashore

There by the sea where we'll anchor our hearts

The blue cloud of doom

Fell upon my land

Felt upon my swordBeheading for a feast

Our swords covered with blood

Beneath the melting sun

The praise is for pagan lords

Returning from the hunt

Our village was set afire

The females screamed for help

The sand-demons have scarred our sacred landAshes and smoke were left

To remind us of failure

The women had been stained

By the rodents of the desert

Carriers of the disease

Left for us to find

We must please Satan attack the rodents of the sandsBattle...Swallowed by the sandThe land was fully conquered

But the desert could not be owned

They slithered to the core

To praise Yahweh at nightfall

The children had been taken

Their juice sucked into the sand

The sun reflected their blood

Fluids consumed by the rodents belowThe blue cloud of doom

Fell upon my land

Felt upon my sword

caught you lying again it's pretty easy if you know how to play

so what you say we make it two out of three

i heard you're dying again well what disease have you contracted today

just as long as you don't give it to me as you don't give it to meyou're waiting tables again and you're counting on a generous tip

but then the tipper doesn't always come through

you're in the gables again getting ready for a fabulous trip

you'd better watch or it could happen to youwhen the devil's minions take you down try to mark a path

something i can follow

when the devil's minions hit the ground you can point and laugh

cause i won't let them swallow you downyou're on the trestle again and your toes are hanging over the edge

and your reflection's in the water below

we'll have to wrestle again but there's a wager that i'm willing to hedge

cause you can bet i won't be letting you gowhen the devil's minions take you down try to mark a path

something i can follow

when the devil's minions hit the ground you can point and laugh

cause i won't let them swallow you down

I wander lonely as a cloud

I keep my head above the crowd

Ain't nobody else as big as meBut I must remember friends

What has to start just has to end

Everybody's got a destinyAnd I know when the swallows flies

Yes, I know, and the earth just dies

Then I'll be told what I am

The swallow and meI'll look after number one

I'll forget the beggar's son

Everybody's got to stay aliveI'll keep walking amongst the clouds

I'll keep my head above the crowd

I'll watch them live, I'll watch them dieAnd I know when the swallows flies

Yes, I know, and the earth just dies

Then I'll be told what I am

The swallow and meYes, I know when the swallows flies

Yes, I know, and the earth just dies

Yes, I know when the swallow flies

Yes, I know, and the earth just dies

I fell asleep on a dark and starlit sea

With nothing but the cloak of god's mercy over me

I come upon strange earth and a great black cave

I dreamt i awoke as if buried in my graveWe've been swallowed up

We've been swallowed up

Disappeared from this world

We've been swallowed upThe bones of sailors from the north and sailors from the east

Lay high in a pyre in the belly of a beast

A beast should you wander in its path upon your ship and your flesh he'll sup

You'll disappear from this world 'til you've been swallowed upWe've been swallowed up

We've been swallowed up

Disappeared from this world

We've been swallowed upAh-ah-ah-ah-ah

Ah-ah-ah-ah-ah

Ah-ah-ah-ah-ah

Ah-ah-ah-ah-ahWe trusted our skills and our good sails

Our faith that with god the righteous in this world prevailBut we've been swallowed up

We've been swallowed up

Disappeared from this world

We've been swallowed upWe've been swallowed up

We've been swallowed up

Disappeared from this world

We've been swallowed upAh-ah-ah-ah-ah

Ah-ah-ah-ah-ah

Ah-ah-ah-ah-ah

Ah-ah-ah-ah-ah

It's February and I just want April

To take my hand and pick me up again.

Yeah I'm numb, but it's really not that bad.

Love life til you get it wrong,

Take a breath and turn your head.

Oh my god I've gotta get out of this trend.

It's 8:00 in the middle of a last chance,

Can't we just pretend we don't know,

Anything or anyone or anywhere anyway.

It's kinda scary in the dark in the dim light,

Can't I just pretend I don't mind,

Everything or everyone or everywhere anyway.

I've got a lot of life and you've got nothing.

Don't swallow the sun,

The moon isn't bright enough.

We're all like flashlights,

Useless til you turn us on.

Sex and cigarettes are real, the apocalypse

Is Fate, replace the "t" with a "k".

Religion's a reminder that our past is filled with liars.

I spell my name with capital letters,

But I don't talk much 'cause I'm a beginner at this life thing.

Yeah I'm young but that don't mean much here.

If everyone knows that they're gonna grow old,

Then why do we act like why we don't like the past?

If we had the chance we'd do it all over again.

I've spent 21 years

Replacing my old fears for new ones.

I've asked why, how, and where?

More times than I care to remember.

I've got 7 days 'til a new week comes,

And 24 hours to convince myself I'm real,

'Cause today I'm not so sure I even exist.

Sitting by the sinners on a bad day

Everybody's kiss is contagious

I'm tired of watching wars on my tv screen

There's not an easy way to say this

Nobody likes a winter

Sitting on the wind while the trees get thinner

Can't you just pretend your a good kid?

Can't I just pretend I really give a shit,

Even though I don't really know how I want to live?

I promise I'll be a better person this time next year

(Borg, Dregen, Blomquist) My baby keeps talkin´ but dogs talks to much, baby

Well can´t you shut your hole and keep it that way for a while

???

What I want is seing your pretty face underneath me, you see

I´m your poison now so drink my cold coup of disease

Check this

Shoot me down

Something My baby likes rollin´ but rollin´ makes you dizzy inside

Slide up and down Juicy makin´ me kind of wild

Sister don´t tell, sister don´t tell what they do to you

Now don´t fall asleep, just open up and say with a smile, it´s wild

And this is what she said

Something to swallow Oh, gimme something to swallow

Oh, gimme something to swallow

It´s not the whiskey down in the Soho bars that she likes

Oh, gimme something I wanna tell you what she did in bed last night

She jumped right up on the floor and spread up her legs

She said, I don´t like being your baby tonight

Don´t you come around for more cause I´ve got hell to pay

And if you wanna do my little rattlesnake shake

You better stick to your guns, `cause it´s a tricky romance

Move up and down, get so close up to the bones

That´s the way i wanna hear it when she says

She shoot me down

Something Oh, gimme something to swallow

Oh, gimme something to swallow

It´s not the whiskey down in the Soho bars that she likes

Oh, gimme something sweet, big, nice, baby

Something to swallow
