Goddess Gagged Lyrics

Goddess Gagged lyrics

Oh God

The sound they must have heard in the distance

A wilderness of sound and movement

Repeating itself across the narrows of the mountainside



The cries of creatures crashing, kill them

The human voices heralding the hillside

Their bellows bouncing, ripe with resonance



From here the unimportant call

Receive the unimportant answer



Oh goddess, who bore us what we must have done

Goddess, who bore us what we must have done

Bury your daughter and pray for a son



The wind and the rain

(Oh goddess, who bore us what we must have done)

Spoke a language of wonder

  (Bury your daughter and pray for a son)



To a species rising thickly to a dialog with thunder

From an empty space between no good with the rest

Clear the empty space between bad and worse

Language unravels and irony hurts, yeah



In the common place between hunger and thirst

The words that could find us, a blessing or curse

The words that can find us, the ideas diverse



Now can I hear the song without verse?

The sound, of the sound, of the sound

Of the sound, uttered first

With the burst into nothing so silent

So silent and soft



The sound, of the sound, of the sound, uttered first

Burst into nothing so smoothening and soft

The silence inside you when the music is stopped

The silence inside you when the music is stopped

When the music is stopped
