Terrible Angels

Charlotte Gainsbourg

My head is pounding
My mouth is dry
My eyes are burning
Oh I can see you lowering

Pan de sal
Blanc menage
Holy holy
Tension turn me inside out
Inside out
Inside out

Seraphim
Please don't pull me down
It's just a drowning man
Reaching for me now

Seraphim
Please don't pull me down
It's just a drowning man
Reaching for me now

I want release from absolution
I want release from
I want release
I want release

Terrible angels
Infant sorrows
Twilight horses
They will walk with me again

I can hear them
Oh I can hear them
My ancestor
My protector
My tormentor
And a lot unknown
And a lot unknown

Seraphim
Please don't pull me down
It's just a drowning man
Reaching for me now

I want release from absolution
An addiction
Good intentions
Blue black flowers
Poison wine
Blood ecstatic
Annihilate the sense of things
I am born into these breaking hours
Out of change, change, change
