Leviathan

MARK LANEGAN · Blues Funeral 2012 · Track 12 of 13

After the deadlock and dazzle As good as, or better than gold I lay down my guns on the table First scarlet, then blue growing cold

Black light and smoke Making a joke In the haze of a setting sun

Leviathan waits in the water Skeletons hide in the trees The hours crawl by like a spider Hangman is following me

At sorrow's door A century more In the rays of a setting sun

After the deadlock and dazzle Glitters at night like it's gold You lay down your heart if you're able First scarlet, then blue growing cold

Everyday a prayer For what I never knew But this is one I said for you
