"Last Light" lyrics

"Last Light"

In cold fall
We tumble
Eyes cast about
Seek last light
Seek last light
Stars blink out
Bodies knot in darkness
Together we cling
We cling
Stars fall cold
All swept away
Stars blink out
All swept away

Knowing our days
No, no longer dream
Our winter's long, long
Tears the light away
What have we done
To our own
Our own native clay?
Finding our lives
Inside grief's watchful eye
Learning to mourn
Corpses in the snow

Time hangs heavy upon our skin
Descending the days of a wavering light
Sacred the secrets of seasons within
Buried deep in our own out of mind

Sorrow we feel as we harrow the fields
As we know death to be a ravenous beast
Weltering in the blood of our love
The river itself starts to weep

All swept away
Cast from sun and into shade
Cold fall ceaseless
In this we are held
