The Vow of the Bees Lyrics


Poured by the bees

As sour betrayal tears

Quenching no thirst

Releasing bloodlust

I wanted to let it go

I wanted to let it all go

But my reason was numb

And I'm tired of it all

Imprisoned within my own body

Waiting for the final dance

A blessing that might be bloody

With total absence of romance

Now they fly around in circles

Their legs cloaked in honey

Swinging their stings as a call

To the one who's carefree

But my question is <

Wouldn't it be less painful to die?

I'm left with nothing to say

And nothing to pray for

Draped with my cape of disgust

I fell down from atop

And as the wind lets me feel its final gust

I try not to puke the last drop

All while the workers tire themselves out

Their wings unable to support the weight of the pollen

And as their last flame blows out

Mine, as a candle's, falters
