lyrics

Holy Diggers Hole

I have come to know the weight of woe in the holy diggers hole
I have come to sew the seeds he left when he did go.
I have come from down that lonesome road with cold black water rain
I have come to sing the songs we heard trapped within the grain
Every child turns to stone in the sun
And the pigs all meet their makers at the sound of their own drum
I have come to you with weary feet broken from the road
I have come only to leave again for my soul I have sold
I have come with wrenched for the cogs of the all consuming beast
I have come here with a great vengeance to say the very least
You can take my hands and chain my feet to
flame
Others like me soon will come again
They have come to steal the fire from our eyes
But when the road grows cold we’ll still know which way to go
Spitting curses from deep within the hole
I have come to know the sound of spring sung through winter’s frost
I have come out of the dark to seek and to be sought
I have come with water for to grow new life on an ancient word
It lied for four hundred years a whisper never heard
You can steal the veins from mighty mountain tops
Dig dig down until the spinning of the world stops
I have come to be the gallows weight, lone shadow in the sand
I have come across four hundred ghosts trapped within the land
I have come with curses for the king and all his golden guns
I have come here in the shadow of a thousand suns
The floodgates fail and a burning ship set sail
The hands of time all wave to wish them well.
They have come to usurp the gold and green
When the light grows old it will shine seven fold
Spitting curses from deep within the hole.

Comme d'habitude, j'ai bien du mal à choisir une "favorite track" avec ce groupe de Trashgrass qui excelle dans son domaine. Mais là, j'ai réussi à me décider finalement. XD EklektikTrip

this album truly feels like a journey. there is a strong atmosphere of transience and solidarity, a feeling of constant change. if you commit yourself to listening through, you will come out a different person. crowskult
