lyrics

The father is attacked by the pale man’s wolves while the pale man lures the daughter away.

Let this be your word
You have forgotten the face of your father
Who watched the wolves hunt such a godless generation

Cause I don’t know their names but they got some crooked faces
And believe me it gets easier with time

The same machines beat in their chests
Singing before they cease to fly
“I’ll come for your daughter next”

Sew the wind and reap hurricanes
Not until you could just be something else completely

I see each shape as it’s moving
But I will never let anything happen to you
They kill the body but never the soul

And when prophet and preacher cease to speak
And the light sings forth from their teeth
All will be well
So don’t stop singing
If you’re not afraid

I know where I’ve been
And I know where I’ve gone wrong

Such delicate things dead at my feet
“How do the birds sing from behind the wolves’ teeth?”
“Their only purpose has now been served”
The pale man moaned
“They won’t be joining us this evening, my dear”
“Where’s my daddy? I shouldn’t be here”
Don’t be so quick to fall asleep
Pretty young thing, please don’t weep
All will be well…
