Go drown the sun in blood

What a beautiful day!

How the daylight shines upon us in our tombes!

Go call back the rivers

Dry them in their courses

The king of dawn is dead

Tell your dreaming children

The heavens are devoured

Let them never wake again

Mary, listen well:

You carry a cancer

red fruit in your dead womb

Oh, holy revelation:

We were weak and then we fell

Carve us out a new sky

Without any color

For our rebirth is as the blind

How like we are to fire!

Here is what remains when fire's gone

Burn down our land

We are the traitor sons of light

Mother, you won't ever cry again once we consume your blue eyes

Here, we are the failures:

Children who could have been gods

Our flickering shadows grow ever longer

Dancing a funeral lament

Bury us tomorrow

Bury us down in the dirt

Go drown the sun in blood

What a beautiful day!

How the daylight shines upon us in our tombs!

Go call back the rivers

Dry them in their courses

The king of dawn is dead

Drown the sun in blood

Give us back to water

Our laughter lies dying in our throats

Build for us a shrine of our remaining hours

And pray for us, for our voices are gone
