The Day Lyrics - Good Morning, Magpie - Murder By Death

The trees gave up their up their roots 

And the lepers left their caves 

All the rattlesnakes came down from the mountain 

And the kings all became slaves 

On the day 

That my lord came 

The fire split the beams 

The wall's coming down 

The day my lord came 

The tears filled up my eyes 

The curtain has been drawn 

To lay to waste this land, to me 

It's like the beauty of the breakin' of the dawn 

And as a black hand swept across the earth 

I knew 

That that day came

When the fish float on the water 

With their bellies up 

I'll know, I'll know 

That that day came 

All the rattlesnakes came down from the mountain 

And the kings all became slaves 

The trees gave up their up their roots from the earth 

And the lepers left their caves 

On the day 

That my lord came 

The coyotes left their dens 

The horses left to their stables 

And they bowed down to the ground 

Every creature that was able 

A blanket of moss will cover the earth 

And I'll know 

That the day came

It's the shifting of the guard 

Time to start anew 

The old gods have all failed 

And their successors too 

My king, my king 

Will wipe the slate clean 

Houses become tombs 

My king, my king 

Will take the fruit of every single womb 

And make it his own 

My king, he is displeased 

To be forgotten and alone 

And the ones who came before 

Well the valley is filled 

With their bones 

I am the storm brewing up from the east 

From the west 

From every direction at once
