Jandek - Relief Of The Night lyrics

Why a picture

Is it all too false

The shepherd gathers in

Voices from the darkness

Bleeding from lonely mountains

They are more quiet at day

Sight in the sun

Live and survive

The tale is not weary

Relief of the night

You will never wake up

The mind must die

Sleep to me now

I'm pounding

Release this beat

This nerve

Anesthetize this being

You will never awaken

Tomorrow is on the other side

Of a sight that is night

Shelter me

O mother of miracles

I am entangled in swamps
