Wretch

[Intro]

Chews the fat with his creator

Over breakfast in the sunlight

Though when he says grace, when he says

Grace! He feels enveloped like a shadow

But there are evenings

There are evenings when this decimated world of movement, colour, and form

Gets thin

And getting thinner

When lights are dim

And getting dimmer

When nights are grim, and they're only getting

Only getting grimmer

[Verse]

As they barter their boulders

And martyr their soldiers

Teach a man to tear her fucking head from her goddamn shoulders

[Breakdown]

Held into the sun

By the threads of her hair

By the threads of her hair

By the threads of her hair

They impart the secret hatred of the fathers to their heirs

[Bridge]

In a silence left unbroken, Oh

On a bed bound and gagged

Bound, bound and gagged

With culture, language, myth, and law

Our goddess gave birth, our goddess gave birth to your god

On a bed bound and gagged with culture, language, myth, and law

From a wounded womb where flesh was scarred and raw

Our goddess gave birth to your god

Our goddess gave birth to your god

Our goddess gave birth to your god

Our goddess gave birth to your god

Goddamn!

[Outro]

Culture, language, myth and law

(Our goddess! Gave birth!)

Culture, language, myth and law

(Our goddess! Gave birth you your god!)

(You want to see the galaxy?)
