With You Came the Whole of the World's Tears

Lyrics

Saint Peter
 Save me and send me down to hell
 ♪
 For I will find her there
 ♪
 Where moonlight catches her scarlet hair
 ♪
 Where she sings
 ♪
 And black ravens circle above her
 In the burning air
 ♪
 Silence your heart before it tears you apart
 Keep your eyes on the distant thunder
 Unfold your wings against the dark
 ♪
 My heart thrown to the lions
 
 My soul fed to the wolves
 Arise, arise, arise
 Walk on your altar of sacrifice
 And let the blood run for her
 
 My heart thrown to the lions
 My soul fed to the wolves
 ♪
 My body left for the winter
 My eyes for the night
 With you came the whole of the world's tears
 The space between the heartbeats
 Is where I felt you
 ♪
 A small death each and every time
 My heart thrown to the lions
 My soul fed to the wolves
 Arise, arise, arise
 Walk on your altar of sacrifice
 And let the blood run for her
 ♪
 I stand straight at the form of my faith
 To keep the last of my honour
 
 But my legs won't carry me anymore
 Paralysed before the eyes of a hunter
 ♪
 I open up my veins for the parasites to come
 ♪
 Silence your heart before it tears you apart
 
 Keep your eyes on the distant thunder
 Unfold your wings against the dark
 ♪
 My heart thrown to the lions
 My soul fed to the wolves
 Arise, arise, arise
 Walk on your altar of sacrifice
 And let the blood run for her
 My heart thrown to the lions
 
 My soul fed to the wolves
 ♪
 My body left for the winter
 My eyes for the night
 ♪
 Saint Peter
 Save me and send me down to hell
