A Greater Darkness

A greater darkness for all its worth
A friend so young whose life was cut
We drink the rain to clear our throats
We drink the poison — we drink the poison — to make it go
The little mercies above all things
No final act, no final scene
A friend for life and in death too
Forever strong, forever hold, inside our soul
So raise your hands above the waters
We are the thieves in giant shoulders
So raise your hands, our hearts sink lower
To watch you drown inside the monster
So raise your hands above the waters
We are the thieves in giant shoulders
So raise your hands…
So raise your hands above the waters
The day now ends and all within
A greater darkness covers everything
Is there no end for such a pain?
Is there no hope, no other life, no way to know?
So raise your hands above the waters
We are the thieves in giant shoulders
So raise your hands, our hearts sink lower
To watch you drown inside the monster
So raise your hands above the waters
We are the thieves in giant shoulders
So raise your hands, our hearts sink lower…
So raise your hands above the waters
We are the thieves in giant shoulders
So raise your hands, our hearts sink lower
To watch you drown inside the monster
So raise your hands above the waters
We are the thieves in giant shoulders
So raise your hands…
So raise your hands…
So raise your hands inside the monster
So raise your hands inside the monster
So raise your hands inside the monster
So raise your hands inside the monster
