"Idumea" lyrics
"Idumea"
And am I born to die?
To lay this body down?
And must my trembling spirit fly
Into a world unknown
A land of deepest shade
Unpierced by human thought
The dreary regions of the dead
Where all things are forgot?
Soon as from earth I go
What will become of me?
Eternal happiness or woe
Must then my portion be
Waked by the trumpet's sound
I from my grave shall rise
And see the Judge with glory crowned
And see the flaming skies

Laura Marling - "The Beast" Where did our love go
You will never know
How did you get home
You will never know
Did you catch yourself in the mirror?
It's a sight I understand
You considered it all for a second
And put it down...
Bat For Lashes - "Sleep Alone" You know, my darling, I can't stand to sleep alone
No sweetheart in the dark to call my own
You're my own, you're my own, I can sing it, I can groan
But the darkness is a stranger and I'm lonely,...
Shearwater - "Castaways" By shadowing
All the darkened fields
Of forgotten words
And civilian lives
Violence
Through the changing guards
Through the grinding away
And their furious marching
By gathering the holy light
And...
Arcade Fire - "Neon Bible" A vial of hope and a vial of pain
In the light they both looked the same
Poured them out on into the world
On every boy and every girl
It's in the Neon Bible, the Neon Bible
Not much chance...
Zola Jesus - "In Your Nature" Eyes above me
Eyes are blown
And now just when the wall becomes a hole
I don't want to know
...The ground is shaking
Out of realm
A hunted world
Where it never shows
I don't want to go
I feel it...
