nest of the night owl lyrics
by Sewerperson
[Intro: Luke Evans & Sewerperson]
Because men do not fear swords, they fear monsters
They run from them
By putting one village to the stake, I spared ten more
Sometimes the world no longer needs a hero
Sometimes what it needs is a monster
Mm
[Chorus: Sewerperson]
Green leaves in twilight reflect off the moon into sunshine
The streams bleed through the beltline
Which I drink as a white wine (Let's go)
I-I'll lead, grip his hand, and take mine
The pinе trees guide us through the grapevinе
Here, time spent well is when I waste mine
As plates shift and replace the state lines
[Verse: Sewerperson]
The nosebleeds plague us through the daytime
We use vague speech to navigate these landmines
Our teeth retract as we can feel their blood dry
Watch our hearts succ*mb to curse as all the love dies
Baby-baby, I'd have told you sooner if you wanna know
But I don't trust myself enough to visit you at home
I feed forever on the corpses of the lesser known
I'd have burned myself alive before I let you go
I had to let you free to find your passage on your own
I-I bite into her brother's neck, it gives like Styrofoam
I feed forever on the corpses which you give the go-go
I dream forever of a life in which I'll never know (Go)
[Chorus: Sewerperson]
Green leaves in twilight reflect off the moon into sunshine
The streams bleed through the beltline
Which I drink as a white wine
I'll lead, grip his hand and take mine
The pine trees guide us through the grapevine
Here, time spent well is when I waste mine
As plates shift and replace the state lines
[Outro: Sewerperson]
Baby, I'd have told you sooner if you wanna know
But I don't trust myself enough to visit you at home
I feed forever on the corpses of the lesser known
I'd have burned myself alive before I let you go
