I’ll love you girl
‘Till the old end of time
And after I cross that line
Look for me for a year
Through seance or through tears
And I will do my best
Without word or this armored mess
To touch your heart so blessed.
Chorus:
I know you’re not God babe
I know you’re not God babe
I know you’re not God babe
But I think you might be closer to him
And after you fall
Where do you go from there?
Get up off your knees and share
And you don’t have to pray
If everything’s ok
And if you’re wounds are dear
Then I’ll wake up with your tears
Let them fill up every year
Chorus
Where is my heart of steel?
What have you done to it?
You’re powers are not yours to give
But they light this room somehow
And this old world of mine
Little Gods and little time
And I always call you mine
Chorus

Old Dread

I see you in the darkness
I'm wrapped around your body
waiting for the old dread
to come and take me over
I know you'de like to see me
You know that I've been dreaming
he sings into a microphone
I used to love her body
now every child that wasn't born
is wondering what they could be
And everything is dreaming
And everyone has lost s friend
Somewhere in that darkness
It's coming for me once again
what is that you call it?
got everything you wanted
what will all these dreams do
when none of them are huanted
holy ghosts want to be wanted
I see you in the darkness
I'm wrapped around your body
waiting for the old dread
to come and take me over
that heart that broke again
COME AND TAKE ME OVER
the love that never ends
COME AND TAKE ME OVER
that wonderful live you’ve lead
COME AND TAKE ME OVER
that end that end that end
THAT END THAT END THAT END
