lyrics

Well it calls upon you daily
It’s ringing in your dreams
It walks without discretion
And it isn’t what it seems
Man it’s, twisted up and ugly
And its hands are dry as clay
Its company is awful
But it takes the pain away
You could’ve stopped it sooner
If it hadn’t gotten hold
If you’d had a premonition
Before it took you home kiss
But it’s left you in destruction
And you’re never coming out
It’s got its fingers in your stomach
Stuffing you with doubt
Hey you know, it’s blood is born of savage heart
Oh, it wants to take you kindly in it’s arms
Come here brother it wants you to kiss it
You can do your best to tame it
You can take away its name
You can try to take possession
But it owns you just the same
It makes whores out of sisters
Fit your father like a glove
Gives you pure abandon
Steals away your love
It’s gonna drown you in the river
Hey you know, it’s blood is born of savage heart
Oh, it wants to take you kindly in it’s arms
Come here brother it wants you to kiss it
It takes you down the alleys
And it works you like a slave
It breaks apart your body
And there’s nothing left to save
So kiss it

The band’s name is a nod to Walt Whitman’s “Leaves of Grass”: “I sound my barbaric yawp over the roofs of the world. ... more
