The Sky Will Swallow Us Whole

With eyes bright and wide as the ocean
I watch the pastel lights ignite (ignite)
I ache as the pictures are buried
Haunting my dreams in the night (night)
My heart races as bodies are lifted
I watch their ashes blacken the sky (the sky)
A girl with rose and embers in her hair, she's terrified
7 demons, 7 plagues, 7 shadows around my bed

When the locusts blot out the moon
I won't know what to do...

(But wait for him...) to take us
I'm losing the ones I love
The spirits here are faceless
I don't want to be saved
I just want to feel safe (I just want to feel safe)

The fear of God in our hearts
We sit and watch them looming
From the hate they are blooming
7 demons, 7 plagues, 7 shadows around my bed

(But wait for him...) To take us
I'm losing the ones I love
The spirits here are faceless
I don't want to be saved
I just want to feel safe

I'm growing anxious to meet with you
Your golden temple in the sky
And I won't live on in guilt
You're just a thief in the night

Oh the fear will make you sick
The fear will make you sick
There's a beauty in parting
When the spirit leaves body
There's a beauty in parting
When the spirit leaves body
