Catharsis
What's this song about?
Generate meaning
1
Black bitter milk we
2
drink in toast to the dawn
3
In huddled silence as
4
a long night falls
5
We write of love upon
6
the bodies of our dead
7
Swallow pride and
8
venom for our daily bread
9
Duende
10
Wash your conscience
11
in the tears of men who rape
12
Trace your pleasures
13
in the outlines of pain
14
You speak of laws and
15
rights in this day and age?
16
I don't believe in
17
anything I can't taste
18
Duende
19
And tonight the losers
20
sleep, or lie awake and gnaw their wrists
21
Crippled dancers,
22
beaten heroes, squandered artists
23
Refugees from those
24
wretched lands
25
Where our dreams died
26
like lovers in our hands
27
While outside in
28
that new age
29
Lost children and
30
devils play
31
On the very
32
doorsteps of our homes
33
New deities sworn
34
in
35
Consuming from
36
without and from within
37
Clean the land down
38
to bare and blackened bones
39
Make ready ten billion
40
beds in hell
41
For we're all coming
42
soon And in this noise, the
43
dreadful silence of tongues
44
Tied by words never
45
spoken, songs left unsung
46
Vows that were bent
47
rather than broken
48
Locked chambers that
49
will never open
50
And none on this earth
51
will ever get what they want
52
And that is beautiful,
53
or close enough
54
And we'll clutch our
55
regrets
56
Shut out the rest
57
Cut out the hearts
58
from our chests
59
And we move
60
Eyes shut, silent,
61
hand in hand
62
Towards a broken
63
promised land When those before
64
you lost their heads upon the block
65
Or sold themselves
66
into the services of the
67
Snakes as new gods
68
Reshape the world
69
in their own image
70
And all the others
71
turn their eyes away
72
We will set out with a
73
fire in our hearts
74
With a desire that
75
cannot be bought
76
To snatch the morning
77
from the jaws of the night
78
To take the dead and
79
bring them back to life
80
Duende nowordsnotouchnosleepnotrustnohopenofaithnorestingplace From childhood schemes
81
on stranger's floors
82
To sickbeds, cells
83
And foreign shores
84
Homeless
85
Heartless
86
Restless
87
Selfless
88
Lifeless
89
Loveless
90
Less and
91
Less and
92
Less And if the morning
93
comes late this time
94
That fickle sun will
95
rise to find
96
My fingers clutched
97
tight around the husks
98
Of dreams I built from
99
dust
100
Finally dead
101
Dead in the land of
102
the dead
103
And they will call it
104
suicide
105
As I scream for just
106
one finger of dawn
107
And it's coming
108
On all horizons, like
109
gathering clouds
110
Bar the doors to shut
111
it out
112
But put your ear to
113
your chest
114
You will hear
115
In your own breast
116
Hoof beats
117
Closing in and there's nothing
118
pure in this place
119
and there's nothing
120
clean in this place
121
and there's nothing
122
sure in this place
123
and there's nothing
124
free in this place
125
and in this world
126
there's nothing safe
127
and in this world
128
there's nothing fair
129
and nothing in this
130
world is true
131
this world that i
132
can't bear
133
and the morning
134
came late I'll spit it back in
135
your face
136
Last-born of an evil
137
race
138
We're all evil in this
139
place Just fucking give
140
me a taste
