Antiaris Toxicaria Songtext
von Black Lips

Caught in the crossfire
Of a thousand flaming arrows in the snow
Now there′s nothing on the table
Just a random pile of bleached bones

You'll never know
This you′ll never know

Paying tribute to a river
That pours into the conscious of the sea
Beneath my skin are slivers
And a tongue that won't deliver taste to me

You'll never know
Lord, you′ll never know
You′ll never know
Lord, you'll never know

Holding you in my right hand
Sinking through the warm quicksand
I′m thinking now of letting go
And I'll be so free tonight


They found me dead beneath the water
Searching for another way to breathe
Like the fish, I string together
With a single piece of leather
I won′t leave

You'll never know
Lord, you′ll never know
You'll never know
Lord, you'll never know

Holding you in my right hand
Sinking through the warm quicksand
I′m thinking now of letting go
And I′ll be so free tonight

Caught in the crossfire
Of a thousand flaming arrows in the snow
Now there's nothing on the table
Just a random pile of bleached bones

You′ll never know
Lord, you'll never know
You′ll, never know
Lord, you'll never know
