Shakes Lyrics

Rivulets Shakes

Once
Anchorite
Took it on
All despite
What you’d seen
What it had done
Now it’s something
You don’t want

Take
Take the rope
Hold it tight
Don’t let go
Watch a fall
Watch a land
Watch it die
Watch it stand

Take
From the night
Give it back
Run and hide

Now
At your door
Uninvited
Back for more

With its fingers
In your mouth
The familiar
On your tongue
And its blood
Under your skin
Its intentions
In your hands

Take
From the night
Give it back
Run and hide

Take
From the night
Give it back
Run and hide
