Locust lyrics

What is all this love for 
If we have to go out in the dark 

Lalalalalala 
What joy we had 
In the locust summer 
What fires we lit 
In the locust years 
Black hundreds 
Black thousands 

Lalalalalala 
What joy we had 
In the locust summers 
What fires we lit 
In the locust years 
Black hundreds 
Black thousands 

Rivers that run 
Rippled with red 
Ravaged and raped 
With our roar roar roaring 

Lalalalalala 
What joy we had 
In the locust summer 
What fire we lit 
In the locust years 

For only the strong survive 
All of the weak are trampled under 
All of the weak are trampled under 

Lalalalalala 
This is only here in this place 
And with these parting tears pour of the flesh 
A freaking and falling 
A crying and calling 
Foreign words crawling rivers 
Beaches moment's ebbing 
Broken watches 
Launch cathar 
Mama in my room 
You left me burning 
You left me burning 
You left me burning 

Lalalalalala 
Animals melting servants screaming 
Crouched in corners coughing crying 
Renting scalding masts of walls 
Chanting scalding baby dying 
And life force ebbing 

Lalalalalala 
What joy we had 
In the locust summers 
What fires we lit 
In the locust years 

Bloody tower of hysteria 
A bloody vase of rape 
He calls the living 
He calls the dying 
He breaks the thunder 
And then it seemed as if 
The whole world was burning 
For only the strong survive 
All of the week get trampled under 

Lalalalalala 
What joy we had 
In the locust summers 
What fires we lit 
In the locust years 
Black hundreds 
Black thousands 

Rivers that run run rippled with red 
Ravaged and raped 
With our roar roar roaring 

What screaming joy 
In the locust years 

Nick my life away 
Lick my life away 

Lalalalalala 
What joy we had 
In the locust summers 
What fires we lit 
In the locust years
