I don't mean to hold a gun up to your head
I'll be fine once you are gone, of that I'm sure
Another time and I'd be smiling in your eyes
For the sake of all our love and that I know
But the rising of the moon means the ending of the day
Time waits for no-one just takes you away
I don't mean to hold a gun up to your head
It's just the anticipation I can't stand.
Well, I feel sure that the genius who did this
Didn't even feel a thud as he drove by
Now I know this day must end with me alone, dear
And I see more than only dark on my horizon.
Treason and infamy enter my life
Tears out the spark that illumines the Sun
Down comes this universe tumbling down
Everything is come undone (twice)
instrumental verse
Cut like a knife in the soil with a spade
Merge with the one light possessing the other
Scream, "Holly Murder, he's done us tonight."
Come, little sister, behold the Mother,
Come, little sister, behold ye the Mother.
