"This Confiscated House" lyrics

"This Confiscated House"

This is the film of my death
I am the only one left
Let it all come down
Let it all come down

I'm stumbling over the blocks
In this confiscated house
My associates
Let this be my testament

Carry the work we have done
Carry the plans we have laid
I tried my best
But there's so little left

Someday the crows will couple in our ruins
Oh, and someday the milkweed will bloom in profusion
Please forgive what you can and remember the rest
When I'm swept with the clover and tarragon
Slumbering under the lawn
In one world less
In one world less
