Dies Irae Songtext
von Patrick Wolf

The night is yet to fall
Not yet your funeral
While we′re alive alive alive, oh
What can I do to help you
Hold back tomorrow?
Show me your unfinished painting
What bird here were you intending?
No, it's the sun in my eyes
Reminds me of a book I′ve been
Putting off reading the ending of
Yes it's later than we think
But not too late
Of my love let you know
The night is yet to fall
Not yet your funeral
While we're alive alive alive-oh
What can I do to help you
Hold back tomorrow?
Hold tight
Let the daylight deepen between us


The sleep of reason produces monsters
Go dance in the kitchen with him
You′ve been his religion and his joy
And it′s later than he thinks
But not too late
Of your love let him know
The night is yet to fall
Not yet your funeral
While we're alive alive alive-oh
What can I do to help you
Hold back tomorrow?
Hush now darling
The horseshoe bat
Ovalling over us
The time is near
Please stop crying
The low sky sighing
Now stay close
The time is near
The badgers huddle
In the tree tunnel
I love you too
The time is near
Take this moment
You′ll always
Have home in it
The time is here
