Gnawing Bones (Coffin’s Lot) lyrics

by

Ahab


Yes, we wept! Alas, how we wept
Our faith in our father, well kept
For God's sake: brave men we were!
Too forward to abandon ourselves to despair

Tablets Of The Law: Heaven sent
Thou shalt not kill: thine commandment
Good Gracious, we set at naught
Yet, we braved the elements, tried to defy all odds

And his glassy, his distracted eyes
As though his will was bound and tied

He lay his head (down on the boat's gunwale)
It took our breath
Few would live, while Coffin died

Detested archair urge to eat
Agonized by this peccant seed
Something errant, this moment owns
We caught ourselves
A moment of weakness
Gnawing bones
