Shakes
Lyrics
Once
Anchorite
Took it on
All despite
What you’d seen
What it had done
Now it’s something
You don’t want
Take
Take the rope
Hold it tight
Don’t let go
Watch a fall
Watch a land
Watch it die
Watch it stand
Take
From the night
Give it back
Run and hide
Now
At your door
Uninvited
Back for more
With its fingers
In your mouth
The familiar
On your tongue
And its blood
Under your skin
Its intentions
In your hands
Take
From the night
Give it back
Run and hide
Take
From the night
Give it back
Run and hide
