Listen, she’s coming
Up the furrows where the tanks drove
Past the ruins, past the graveyard
In the raiment of a widow
Listen, she’s coming
Like a flash-flood without warning
To wash those shallow roots away
And swell the banks by morning
Yeah, she’s comin,
Put your pistol down
Listen, she’s closer,
She’s rattling the windows
With her wake spread wide behind her
Just as blackened as the meadow
Oh listen, don’t fight it,
Y’know she only wants to hold you
You can mock her name, but don’t dare
Say she never warned you
Yes, she’s comin,
Better light a candle
She come back to dance atop the temple,
Feed you a little piece of your shadow,
Colorin’ daylight black,
Welcome, daughter of night,
Welcome, nothing is left,
Welcome, bringer of light,
Welcome, Mother of Death
I know you know it’s time,
I know you know it’s right,
Make straight the way, don’t be left behind
Listen, she’s here now
She’s oh, so pleased to see you
Don’t you get no big ideas, boy
You’re just a lung for her to breathe through
Oh, listen, she’s comin’,
She’s doin’ what she pleases
She may wrap you in her arms
Or tear you into pieces
Yes, she’s comin,
Better light a candle
She come back to dance atop the temple,
Callin' all bullets back to the barrel,
Colorin’ the daylight black,
Welcome, daughter of night,
Welcome, nothing is left,
Welcome, bringer of light,
Welcome, Mother of Death

Banger after banger. These guys have reinvented what should be possible with the string instrument. This album doesn't miss, and I will not rest until everyone on the planet has listened to it. India Bowen
