Requiem Lyrics by Moulettes

Moulettes

2010

[Verse]
\nIt's in the dark
\nFull fathom lurking
\nSkirting round the house
\nImmersed in the valley
\n
\nCan't smell it yet
\nBut the stench will become unbearable
\nIt lingers in the lake
\nIt is the ache of our ages
\n
\n[Chorus]
\nDon't leave it languishing there
\nDefended by the tender-hearted
\nFive miles forth is a path
\nAnd it's foolishly unguarded
\n
\nDon't watch wearily on
\nAnd welcome in misfortune
\nFour horsemen ride through the night
\nAnd it's likely they'll arrive soon
\n
\n[Verse]
\nAssembled on the chosen few
\nEach of us too weak to wield
\nThe weapon we had selected
\n
\nRegret is heavy in the air
\nNeglect is all-pervading
\nAxiom the disaffected
\n
\n[Pre-Chorus]
\nHow we used to sing when we were
\n(How we used to sing when we were...)
\nDrying fresh flowers as we came off stage
\n(Drying fresh flowers as we came off stage)
\n
\nHow we used to sing when we were
\n(How we used to sing when we were...)
\nDrying fresh flowers as we came off stage
\n(Drying fresh flowers as we came off stage)
\n
\n[Chorus]
\nDon't leave it languishing there
\nDefended by the tender-hearted
\nFive miles forth is a path
\nAnd it's foolishly unguarded
\n
\nDon't watch wearily on
\nAnd welcome in misfortune
\nFour horsemen ride through the night
\nAnd it's likely they'll arrive soon
\n
\n[Instrumental Interlude]
\n
\n[Chorus]
\nDon't leave it languishing there
\nDefended by the tender-hearted
\nFive miles forth is a path
\nAnd it's foolishly unguarded
\n
\nDon't watch wearily on
\nAnd welcome in misfortune
\nFour horsemen ride through the night
\nAnd it's likely they'll arrive soon\n\n
