Curl up tight into a ball Curl my body against the soil Staring up here At the cathedral wall I will sleep tonight Be a baby Forget it all Be a baby Watch the quiet stones Massive friend Cathedral wall I will sleep tonight A mother to the living A mother to the dead Silent as the moonlight I come to lay my head And I won't know you Anymore The peckish evening rolls once more Into the ravenous night Of hunger pains That keep our troubled souls awake We are forbidden to explain A mother to the living A mother to the dead My ghost will drink the moonlight Magic stones My heart and bones And I won't know you Anymore She's cold She knows me Cathedral wall She's cold She shows I borrow Keep away Keep you away my love, my love And pray I might sleep tonight The violence of my heartbeat The violence of the blood I will sleep with the cathedral And, one day, you'll give up And I will love you But I won't know you Anymore My frenzied and exhausted mind Will somehow find a way To leave you for a time Condemned to lieing And lying awake
