If You... Lyrics by Michael Gira

Drainland

1995

[Verse 1]
If you carry the light for me
Through oceans of melting steel
The very next sound you feel
Will be the low red sky bleeding
[Chorus]
But oh, it's all right
I don't care, it's all right
[Verse 2]
I'm subtracting the air from my lungs
So someone will breathe in me
My body's just empty skin
Floating through tunnelling space
[Chorus]
But oh, it's all right
I don't care, it's all right
I don't care, it's all right
[Verse 3]
If you put your wet mouth on my skin
I will black out my blue eyes
And the very next sound you feel
Will be my white body bleeding
[Chorus]
But oh, it's all right
I don't care, it's all right
I don't care, it's all right
