Songtext zu 'At Zero Below' von Mark Lanegan Band

On the night I can't forget
I burned my love with a cigarette
My telescopic eye had seen
The grass on graves so evergreen

How would you know, she said
To choke, to seize and think to call?
What do you know, she said
Of toxic tears chemical sprawl?

How would you know, she said
To moan, to cry and still to crawl?
At zero below she's dead
Asleep inside the churchyard wall

In this dream I can't forget
I set an arson fire without a one regret
The camera in my cornea
Took black and whites from my collection of

Wait'll you see, she said
That moment just before you fall
How much you'll bleed? She said
You'll lay there bleeding like a dog

On a night so gray and wet
Into somebody's face I spit
So angry and illiterate
My inner furnace quickly lit

You're gonna know, she said
What they really mean by Hell
You're gonna know, she said
For who they ring that heavy bell

At zero below and dead
We are together, now and on

In this dream I can't forget
I burned my love with cigarette
The camera of my eye had seen
The grass on graves so evergreen

You're gonna know, she said
What they really mean by Hell
You're gonna know, she said
For who they ring that heavy bell

At zero below and dead
We lay together now and on
We lay together now and on
We lay together now and on
We lay together now and on
We lay together now and on, yeah
