Antony And The Johnsons lyrics

Twilight

Twilight
I fall in the Harbor
Twilight
I fall in the hills
But here in the city
That never sleeps
I can fall
Through one's fingers

When the swan
Flies to heaven
Soaring through
The utmost fear
There's a feeling
That lingers in the afterwards
Will you ever return
Will you ever return
Will you ever return

Twilight
Twilight
Twilight

Twilight

Mr. Muscle forcing bursting
Stingy thingy into little me, me, me
But just "ripple" said the cripple
As my jaw dropped to the ground
Smile smile

It's true I always wanted love to be
Hurtful
And it's true I always wanted love to be
Filled with pain
And bruises

Yes, so Cripple-Pig was happy
Screamed " I just compeletely love you!
And there's no rhyme or reason

As I search for a piece of kindness
And I find Hitler in my heart

And he is whispering
"As sure as love will spring
From the Well of Blood in Vain, oh Jew!
The Well of Blood in Vain!"
La la la la la la

And I fell into a deeper precipice
With mouths of rapists
Jaws dropped down
Jaws dropped down
Jaws dropped

Don't punish me
For wanting your love inside of me
Don't punish me

God visits all lost souls
To survey the damage
We noticed a bonfire
Burning in his eyes

He whispered
"It's the atrocities of your story
Of your story"

God visits all lost souls
To survey the damage
And holding his bleeding heart
A tear comes to his eye
He whispered
It's the atrocities of History
Of History
Of...

The he falls to the floor

There is a black river
It passes by my window
And late at night
All dolled up like Christ
I walk the water
Between the piers

Singing
Oh
River of sorrow
River of time, river
River of sorrow
Don't swallow this time

For we all know the baby has expired
Long ago she was pulled from the mire
And no precious liar or well-wisher
Can return the love that was stolen

Rapture
Eyes are falling
Lips are falling
Hair is falling to the ground
Slowly, softly
Falling, falling
Down in silence to the ground
All the world is falling, falling
All the blue
From me and you
Tear drops falling to the ground
Tear drops
I'm talkin' 'bout your tear drops
For instance
Oh my mama
She's been falling
Falling down for quite some time
And oh my papa

Divine

Good-Bye, baby
Baby, good-bye
Divine, oh Divine
Falling like a picture of time

Oh he was the Mother of America
He was my self-determined guru
Myself, I hold your big fat heart in my hands

And I hold your burning heart in my hands
A supernova
A flame on fire
Shining in the darkness

Did someone mention a rapture
Well I turn to think of you

Blue angel

It's the memory of your warmth
That keeps me alive
When I'm burning
And my world's closing in

Oh I'm on fire
Oh I'm on fire

I hold on to a wheel of burning fear

Oh I'm on fire
Oh I'm on fire

And then the sky is falling in
And I see your eyes

Hiding in the shadows
Hiding in the flames

Oh I'm on fire
Oh I'm on fire
I'm on fire...

Deeper than Love

My heart is broken
Here in the cup of my hands
From between cracked fingers
Old blood spills

I had to move on, baby
For when I tasted my own tears
They were too sweet
And I knew that I had come to close

And I have tried to shine in the darkness
Entertaining vanities in vain

Fall deeper
Fall deeper

My heart is broken
Here in the cup of my hands
