Artist: Nick Cave and the Bad Seeds
Song: carry me
I lay down by the river
The shadows moved across me, inch by inch
And all that I heard
Is the war between the water and the bridge
Turn to me, turn to me, turn to me
Turn and drink of me
Look away, look away, look away
And never more think of me
Carry me
Carry me
And I heard the many voices
Speakin' to me from the depths below
This ancient wound, this catacomb
Beneath the whited snow
Come to me, come to me, come to me
Come and drink of me
Turn away, turn away, turn away
And never more think of me
Carry me
Carry me away
Who will lay down their hammer?
Who will put up their sword?
Pause to see, mystery
Well the mystery of the word
Carry me
Carry me
Carry me
Carry me away
Carry me
Carry me
Carry me
Carry me away
Carry me
Carry me
Carry me
Carry me away
