Regina Spektor - Lacrimosa lyrics
[Regina Spektor - Lacrimosa lyrics]
We keep on planting their bones in the ground
But they won't grow the sun doesn't help
The rain doesn't help
If my garden would have a fence
Then the rabbit's couldn't just come in
And sit on the grass and eat all the flowers
And shit
Hi, I'm Icarus, I'm falling
Down, man for judgment must prepare me
Spare, oh god, in mercy spare me
Man, I have a terrible feeling
That something's gone awful
Very wrong with the world
Is it something we made?
Is it something we ate?
Is it something we drank?
Hi, I'm Icarus, I'm falling
From the dust of earth
Returning back, for judgement must prepare me
Spare, oh god spare me
Lacrimosa
We keep on burying our dead
We keep on planting their bones in the ground
But they won't grow the sun doesn't help
And all we've got is a giant crop
Of names and dates
Hi, I'm Icarus I'm falling down
Ah! this day of tears and mourning
From the dust of earth returning
Man for judgement must prepare me
Spare, oh god, spare me
Lacrimosa lacrimosa dies illa
Qua resurget ex favilla judicandus homo reus
Huic ergo parce, Deus
