Lyrics to Bloodmoon: I [The Best Alternative Metal Album] by Converge

Tracklist: 01. Blood Moon [Verse 1: Jacob Bannon] Blood moon ascends in night As the cosmic eye Free of the chains That define our lives It cuts through flesh and bone Into the glow of souls Gazing far and wide Devoid of hope [Verse 2: Chelsea Wolfe] You cut me open But I won't you find What’s under the surface Entombed in my mind Beneath the surface It's grim to see Oh, it echoes out Then disappears [Pre-Chorus: Chelsea Wolfe] Unblinking eye in the shadows Abets the world its weary lies Enthroned beside the dimming light Speak what’s left unspoken The time is near [Chorus: Jacob Bannon] Blood moon ascends in the night Cosmic unblinking eye Gazing through flesh and bone Into the glow of our souls Blood moon ascends in the night Cosmic unblinking eye Gazing through flesh and bone Into the glow of our souls [Bridge: Chelsea Wolfe] The mind was a hall that towered high And on the throne was the child inside And on my side, enthroned beside The shadows divine Held all the world and the glimmering life In mind was a time when all was right Mind was in mind [Chorus: Jacob Bannon] Blood moon ascends in the night Cosmic unblinking eye Gazing through flesh and bone Into the glow of our souls Blood moon ascends in the night Cosmic unblinking eye Gazing through flesh and bone Into the glow of our souls [Verse 3: Chelsea Wolfe] Cut me open It’s grim to see Beneath the surface, etched in fear The day has spoken How dare you speak her name To consecrate the broken Carry weary worlds [Outro: Jacob Bannon] The day has broken A stain, a crime You, serpent Deicide The day has broken A stain, a crime You, serpent Deicide 02. Viscera Of Men Invidious judgements move towards an end Scatter and splatter, the viscera of men This circle of fire is life on a wire A culling of hatred, again and again Bleed until the silence Cast them to the void To flee the fight is violence Their misery is joy Bleed until the silence Cast them to the void To flee a fight is violence Their misery is joy Free, to flee In surrender Inside, inside You were inclined Bleed until the silence Cast them to the void To flee the fight is violence Their misery is joy Inside you, never felt enough pain But you were inclined to wonder Inside you a war was building, in time Bleed until the silence Cast them to the void To flee the fight is violence Their misery is joy Bleed until the silence Cast them to the void To flee the fight is violence Their misery is joy Bleed until there is silence Bleed until there is silence 03. Coil Venomously Winding and weaving Blood and ivory Obscure belief A hidden hunger Writhing and seething Basking in the warmth Of love unseen It’s like A serpent coiled inside It’s like The sun shone on serpent’s lies And it’s like this life This life It’s like a serpent Coiled inside me Sign of the sacred song Slithering sweetly Odd with intention This coil furls on and on Slither with odd intentions This coil furls on and on The sacred song Venomously Winding and weaving Blood and ivory Obscure belief A hiddеn hunger Writhing and seething Basking in the warmth Of love unseen It’s likе A serpent coiled inside It’s like The sun shone on serpent’s lies And it’s like This life, this life It’s like a serpent Coiled inside me Sign of the sacred song Slithering sweetly Odd with intention This coil furls on and on Sign of the sacred song This coil furls on and on Sign of the sacred song This coil furls on and on Basking in the warmth Of love unseen This coil furls on and on 04. Flower Moon Flower moon Hanging like a curse Puncturing the dark Wilting in reverse Join you in the sky Seize you eye to eye Won't you stay in bloom? Oh, flower moon Flower moon Tangled in the trees Shining through Wilting in the leaves Join you in the sky Seize you eye to eye Won't you stay in bloom? Oh, flower moon Flower Join you in the sky Seize you eye to eye Won't you stay in bloom? Oh, flower moon Flower moon 05. Tongues Playing Dead No breath Just blinding fog No step Just grinding slog Tongues in our mouths Playing dead Let 'em rot out of our heads No breath Just blinding fog No step Just grinding slog Tongues playing dead No wheel Just broken cogs No meal Just beaten dogs Tongues in our mouths Playing dead Let 'em rot out of our heads Tongues in our mouths Playing dead Let 'em rot out of our heads We go silent So, so silent, we go silent It's so quiet So, so quiet, it's so quiet We go silent So, so silent, we go silent Playing dead, playing dead It's so quiet So, so quiet, it's so quiet Playing dead, playing dead Tongues playing dead Tongues in our mouths Playing dead Let 'em rot out of our heads Tongues in our mouths Playing dead Let 'em rot out of our heads Let 'em rot out our heads Tongues playing dead Let 'em rot out of our heads Tongues playing dead Tongues playing dead 06. Lord Of Liars You said it's not that you know it You said it's all hysteria You said it's not true knowledge You said it's not that you know you're wrong Spiteful destroyer Lord of the liars Cower to cowards Ice age is coming It's only salt inside you You know it's only cauterized You know it's slowly dying You know you know it's dying Spiteful destroyer Lord of the liars Cower to cowards Ice age is coming Goodbye liars Goodbye cowards Goodbye liars Goodbye cowards Go We sat in sudden silence We sat beneath your watching eye You know we've not forgotten You know you were unbound 07. Failure Forever Pounds of flesh and pints of blood Just won't ever be enough To break our stare into the sun And show us all how to love Between you and me Shines a light of disbelief Tears of fear and seeds of doubt We cannot reach beyond To touch the face of fallen ones Discerning needs from their wants Between you and me Shines a light of disbelief Constant reminders Our failures last forever As years fall, the fear takes root Growing constant reminders Our failures last forеver As years fall the fеar takes root Forever Pounds of flesh and pints of blood Just won't ever be enough To break our stare into the sun And show us all how to love Between you and me Shines a light of disbelief Tears of fear and seeds of doubt We cannot reach beyond To touch the face of fallen ones Discerning needs from their wants Between you and me Shines a light of disbelief Constant reminders Our failures last forever As years fall, the fear takes root Growing constant reminders Our failures last forever As years fall the fear takes root Forever Failure forever Failure forever 08.

Crimson Stone Compass rose Pricking you Bleed a map of stars Battle wounds Blood we drew Busy making scars Mess with it Confess to it Fate already knows Tracing us Embracing us Where a flower grows Stand in the way and fate will simply go around Forces at play flipping worlds upside down Trembling souls shaken into piles of bone Blood running cold before it hardens into stone Dragging on Time and space Face the black mirror Moving hands Glacial pace Reflections nearer Ravaging Disparaging Fate will split the earth Falling in This hole again Dying sense of worth Stand in the way Stand in the way and fate will simply go around Forces at play Forces at play flipping worlds upside down Trembling souls Trembling souls shaken into piles of bone Blood running cold Blood running cold before it hardens into stone Crimson stone Crimson stone Crimson stone Crimson stone Crimson stone Crimson stone Crimson stone Crimson stone 11.
