Letra Golem Caligula'S Horse

Golem

A slow burn
Down to the last dead letter
Sulphur
To cover up the smell of the blood in the water
Absolve me
Could kick out the flame, but we both know better than
To follow a road to its end
Just give me that feeling again, sing
A slow burn
A bite to the bone, a shudder
Lay down
And die in the mud like a good little soldier
Absolve me
Could kick out the flame, but we both know better, you'll
Follow that rope to its end to give me that feeling again

Now sing
Wreck

A slow turn
Blind to the verdant mother
Lay down
Refusing to believe it's over
Absolve me
It's a kick in the teeth, I'm not that better man
And I'm on my knees at the end to beg for that feeling again

(Sling hope, hope around your neck)

Oh, when you fell out of the world, you
Saw that it still turned
Only mercy for the dead, sling
Hope around your neck
You're not done yet

You don't learn
Still striving to understand
Stay down
The tongue bites the blood for a taste of the backhand
We're home-free
But fixing the fight leaves us all no better than
The hammer that's striking the nerve
We're getting just what we deserve

Now sing
Wreck
Now sing, wreck

Take wrong and ruin intertwined
And pour your nothing into mine
Where do I put the violence?
He's gone and I still carry it
Golem
For all the peace you'll never find
For all your little suicides
You turn and face the bayonets
It's time, get up and finish it
Golem

(Follow that rope to its end)
(To give me that feeling again)

Oh, when you fell out of the world, with
No hope to return
Did you think we would forget? Sling
Hope around your neck
You're not done yet

Oh, mother, won't you save me?
Oh, mother, please, we're bleeding out
Just send the sun to face me
And tell me that I'm needed now
Oh, mother, won't you pull me down?
I'll raise a voice, I'll pay the debt
Don't let the silence take me yet (Take me)
