The Beggar Lover (Three)

Part 1 (0:00 - 12:10) [Instrumental: 0:00 - 3:52] (Jennifer Gira): Slowly, it's taking me over and eventually I'll be completely transformed: diffused in the earth, or incinerated and vaporized. It's in the food I eat, in the air I breathe. It's in the people I love and they frighten me. I can see a black shadow shimmering just beneath their skin. Despite my love for them, there's nothing I can do for them, nor is there anything they can do for thеmselves. It's slowly encroaching, rеlentless. Its appetite is endless and will never be filled [Instrumental: 4:44 - 10:00] (Michael Gira): Milky Michael, sleepy Michael Sleepy Michael, milky Michael Sleepy Michael, milky Michael Milky Michael, sleepy Michael Sleepies, close your eyes Close your eyes [Instrumental: 10:57 - 12:10] Part 2 (12:10 - 24:07) [Instrumental: 12:10 - 18:55] Oh...
