And if a soul
Falls down from the table into my mouth
I will eat it
And if a child
Comes over to me in my garden
I will kill it
But in all these cases, in all these cases
In all these faces
I'm guilty then
In all these cases, in all these cases
In all these kitchens I'm burning then
I fall asleep of the daylight that is sent down from heaven to me
I dream the dream that I feel the breath of God in my back
I hear the barking, the everlasting barking of the dogs
Jumping for my neck
Jumping for my neck
And then it fades
And if I taste
The breast that is given into my hands
I will bite it
And if I touch
The last thing that is standing in my garden
I will crush it
But in all these cases, in all these cases
In all these faces I'm guilty then
In all these cases, in all these cases
In all these kitchens I'm burning then
I fall asleep of the daylight that is sent down from heaven to me
I dream the dream that I feel the breath of God in my back
I hear the barking, the everlasting barking of the dogs
Jumping for my neck
Jumping for my neck
And then it sleeps
And then it sleeps
But in all these cases, in all these cases
In all these cases
I'm bleeding then
I try to tear down, I try to tear down the rose, oh bloody rose
I fall asleep of the daylight that is sent down from heaven to me
I dream the dream that I feel the breath of God in my back
I hear the barking, the everlasting barking of the dogs
Jumping for my neck
Jumping for my neck
And then it fades
All my life starts to fade away, fade away
And then my life starts to fade away, fade away
Fade away!
