The Legendary Pink Dots - Lent lyrics
[The Legendary Pink Dots - Lent lyrics]
We, the starving volunteers the ones who
Go without the shoeless, hair-shirts, bonded
Veiled seekers of the drought now stand
Before your floral gate to rend
These rags and shout
Your name in your name we came to whine
Remind you that it's time for endless vigil
On stone cold floors
On ashes or on white hot nails
Slow motion tip-toe and vicious
Gales that flex then flail then
Punch from all directions
In your name our crosses rotting in the rain
We hang before you in your nameWe
Bear the bitter mark of Cain
Go without the shoeless, hair-shirts, bonded
Veiled seekers of the drought now stand
Before your floral gate to rend
These rags and shout
Your name in your name we came to whine
Remind you that it's time for endless vigil
On stone cold floors
On ashes or on white hot nails
Slow motion tip-toe and vicious
Gales that flex then flail then
Punch from all directions
In your name our crosses rotting in the rain
We hang before you in your nameWe
Bear the bitter mark of Cain
