[Chelsea Wolfe - Offering lyrics]
Holy life that you liken to
Nothing bursts at the seams
All the while stem the tide
I have seen it in my dreams
Here a fount in the desert
It was more than I could be
Human life as a lesson
You will see the mess of me
Hear it there, feel it swarming underneath
Oh, when love came for me
The blue and salton sea
A thousand lives lived in circles
A planet burning at the seams
Skeletal sand as a lesson
That became an offering
River nigh, river light
Sent us burning out to sea
Holy love, if you let it
Never wanted it to be
You and I, you, a lesson
But never offered it to me
Human life gone wild
It was not enough for me
You and I, you and I won't grow
You and I, in our wild, won't listen
It was rife
It was rife with unholy offerings
It was rife
It was rife with the flowers of deceit
Nothing bursts at the seams
All the while stem the tide
I have seen it in my dreams
Here a fount in the desert
It was more than I could be
Human life as a lesson
You will see the mess of me
Hear it there, feel it swarming underneath
Oh, when love came for me
The blue and salton sea
A thousand lives lived in circles
A planet burning at the seams
Skeletal sand as a lesson
That became an offering
River nigh, river light
Sent us burning out to sea
Holy love, if you let it
Never wanted it to be
You and I, you, a lesson
But never offered it to me
Human life gone wild
It was not enough for me
You and I, you and I won't grow
You and I, in our wild, won't listen
It was rife
It was rife with unholy offerings
It was rife
It was rife with the flowers of deceit
