The Death Of Music Lyrics - Devin Townsend

[Words and music by Devin Townsend] 

Question... 

Leapt like dog from man... 

Terminate high thinking... 

Known in your prophecy... 

Sun... Son... 

Sun it shifts, and brittleness subsides 

To sleep... sleep away 

One comes, the rain will always be 

And things I am 

Are things that should not be 

They laughed at me but we never bothered 

My friends and I 

There were no others 

Now it comes... 

Bolt across the blue... 

Shadows dance over the land... 

Walls high, water deep 

Brick and steel gathering speed 

Guess it's just a feeling 

...Guess it's just a feeling... 

Rain may come 

The rain may never be 

In things you are 

Are things I need to be 

My friends were there but they never bothered 

Now there's you and I an 

There are no others 

It's like when death becomes musical 

...It's musical 

It's like a death becomes musical 

Musical 

And it comes... 

To make sure that he will never rise 

And the groans from the bellies 

Have never cried this hard 

And the eyes of the wicked ones 

Have never been full of dust 

In the middle of the sea it waits... 

...Closer... 

Home, nor anywhere on Earth on that final day will anyone be apart 

...one...schooled...together... 

Towards the sea... 

And we may drown, fly, fall from faith 

...but the pain won't be realized 

Because the emotions will hit as god should 

And the mountains will offer no shelter 

And the clouds will be no cover... 

No matter where we run... 

We will simply not be alone 

Don't die on me 

Don't go away 

When I need you here 

In my need 

The rain will come 

The rain will always be 

In things I am 

Are things that have to be 

My friends have come and I never bothered 

Myself and I 

There is no other 

It's like a death becomes musical 

It's musical
