about

Contains coarse language and mature themes.

lyrics

Low,
There was a chorus of invalids,
Staring their mothers down,
Begging eyes and teeth,
Flesh disguised beneath
Their desperate bones

And I hovered beside
These gentle people

And 'Hail!' was the cry of these miscreants,
They wept as I entered the room,
Bleeding gums and lips,
Heaving hungry hips
Involuntarily

And I spat and I hissed
With a mighty wrath
As never had I conceived
I wanted to kill them all
But I bit my tongue
And bade my time

Loudly ignorant
Was I loudly ignorant?
Was I?

Well I fled
With their sweet, hot blood on my hands,
Their sweet screams ringing in my ears,
I showed them what a fucking man I was
They'll think less of me no more

Loudly ignorant,
Was I loudly ignorant?
I was.

And I hovered beside
These gentle people
