At Zero Below Lyrics by Mark Lanegan

Straight Songs of Sorrow

2020

[Verse 1]
On the night I can't forget
I burned my love with a cigarette
My telescopic eye had seen
The grass on graves so evergreen

[Chorus]
How would you know?
She said
To choke, to seize, in vain to call?

What do you know?
She said
Of toxic tears, chemical sprawl

[Chorus]
How would you know?
She said
To moan, to cry and still to crawl?
At zero below she's dead
Asleep inside the churchyard wall

[Verse 2]
In this dream I can't forget
I set an arson fire
Without a one regret
The camera in my cornea
Took black and whites from my collection of

[Chorus]
Wait'll you see
She said
That moment just before you fall

How much you'll bleed?
She said
You'll lay there bleeding like a dog

[Verse 3]
On the night so grey and wet
Into somebody's face I spit
So angry and illiterate
My inner furnace quickly lit

[Chorus]
You're gonna know
She said
What they really mean by Hell

You're gonna know
She said
For whom they ring that heavy bell

At zero below and dead
We are together now and all

[Verse 4]
In this dream I can't forget
I burned my love with a cigarette
The camera of my eye had seen
The grass on graves so evergreen

[Chorus]
You're gonna know
She said
What they really mean by Hell

You're gonna know
She said
For who they ring that heavy bell

At zero below and dead
We lay together now and on

We lay together now and all
We lay together now and all
We lay together now and all
We lay together now and all
