At Zero Below - Mark Lanegan

On the night I can’t forget

I burned my love with a cigarette

My telescopic eye had seen

The grass on graves so evergreen

How would you know?

She said

To choke, to seize, in vain to call?

What do you know?

She said

Of toxic tears, chemical sprawl

How would you know?

She said

To moan, to cry and still to crawl?

At zero below she’s dead

Asleep inside the churchyard wall

In this dream I can’t forget

I set an arson fire

Without a one regret

The camera in my cornea

Took black and whites from my collection of

Wait’ll you see

She said

That moment just before you fall

How much you’ll bleed?

She said

You’ll lay there bleeding like a dog

On the night so grey and wet

Into somebody’s face I spit

So angry and illiterate

My inner furnace quickly lit

You’re gonna know

She said

What they really mean by Hell

You’re gonna know

She said

For whom they ring that heavy bell

At zero below and dead

We are together now and all

In this dream I can’t forget

I burned my love with a cigarette

The camera of my eye had seen

The grass on graves so evergreen

You’re gonna know

She said

What they really mean by Hell

You’re gonna know

She said

For who they ring that heavy bell

At zero below and dead

We lay together now and on

We lay together now and all

We lay together now and all

We lay together now and all

We lay together now and all
