deep femme - the watcher of point pleasant (full band) lyrics
before the bridge collapse were you there
and in pripyat did you proceed the terror
oh watcher why were you sent
are you warning taunt or lament
like giant wheels with many eyes
you crack the skies and terrorize
swooping down out of the west virginia night
your seraphim stare sets my soul alight
and in those fires strange visions writhe
i wake in cold sweats forseeing the end of times
everyone is worried that i have lost my mind
see your face in blackest night and i’m sure that they’re right
oh fearsome winged thing do you prophesy
like beings of old sent from up on high
is this fear holy this trembling sanctified
do you carry messages from the inscrutable divine
or are you shadows caught in streetlights
no more than blurry photos of a bird of prey in flight
or are you some demon sent to hound us
these nightmares madness these catastrophes nefarious
your strange visions stranglegrip my soul
i wake up screaming spitting words that i don’t know
everyday i’m worried that everyone will die
hear your wings whisper in the night and i’m sure the end is nigh
i believe i believe watcher protect me
i believe i believe guide my feet
i believe i believe i believe cast your aweful shadow on me
i believe i believe i believe i believe
teach me how to see teach me how to speak
teach me how to see teach me how to speak
teach me how to see teach me how to speak
just off the road
outside of point pleasant
the messenger waits and watches
for its prophet
