What Death Leaves Behind - Los Campesinos![00:00:00]

I was the first match struck[00:00:17]

At the first cremation,[00:00:19]

You are my shallow grave,[00:00:22]

I'll tend you as a sexton[00:00:24]

If you're the casket door[00:00:26]

That's being slammed upon me,[00:00:28]

I'll be a plague cross[00:00:30]

Painted on your naked body[00:00:32]

Well summer sighed[00:00:36]

And summoned up hail.[00:00:38]

Dirty in dish rack drips the holy grail[00:00:40]

May be heart slob but[00:00:45]

I want 'em to know,[00:00:46]

Cut and shut us like a portmanteau[00:00:49]

We sit around just spit-balling,[00:00:54]

All the witches cackle round my cauldron[00:00:58]

Recognize the lies from my poker tongue[00:01:02]

They say you and me are tautology[00:01:07]

What grows from the seeds,[00:01:12]

Can you quite believe?[00:01:14]

Through cracks come the weeds,[00:01:16]

Long time listener, first time caller,[00:01:18]

No need to remind me[00:01:22]

What death leaves behind me[00:01:24]

Why must I lie awake,[00:01:32]

From dusk until the morning,[00:01:34]

Through fear of being[00:01:36]

Impaled upon errant mattress spring?[00:01:37]

Within a waking dream[00:01:40]

I finally made my heel turn,[00:01:42]

Lived life as Super 8 when[00:01:45]

You were promised Hilton[00:01:47]

Propose me as a pardon for sins,[00:01:51]

Led on barbecue I'm burnt offerings[00:01:54]

I proof-read the Book of Job for the Lord:[00:01:59]

Edit one, League Cup 2004[00:02:03]

We, delicate as a filigree,[00:02:08]

Cleared a place for us in the chicory[00:02:12]

Colosseum blood will dry in the sun[00:02:16]
