The Sky Will Swallow Us Whole Lyrics

[Verse 1]
With eyes bright and wide as the ocean
I watch the pastel lights ignite
I ache as the pictures are buried
Haunting my dreams in the night
My heart races as bodies are lifted
I watch their ashes blacken the sky
A girl with rose and embers in her hair, she's terrified
Seven demons, seven plagues
Seven shadows around my bed

[Pre-Chorus]
When the locusts blot out the moon
I won't know what to do
But wait for him

[Chorus]
To take us
I'm losing the ones I love
The spirits here are faceless
I don't wanna be saved
I just wanna feel safe
(I just wanna feel safe)

[Verse 2]
The fear of God in our hearts We sit and watch them looming
From the hate they are blooming
Seven demons, seven plagues
Seven shadows around my bed

[Chorus]
To take us
I'm losing the ones I love
The spirits here are faceless
I don't wanna be saved
I just wanna feel safe
(I just wanna feel safe)

[Bridge]
I'm growing anxious to meet with you
Your golden temple in the sky
And I won't live on in guilt
You're just a thief in the night

[Outro]
Oh, the fear will make you sick
Oh, the fear will make you sick
There's a beauty in parting when the spirit leaves body
There's a beauty in parting when the spirit leaves body
