Joy Through Death (Live At Roadburn Festival 2018)

On a grieving moon
Your pleasure grave
Mother blood
A mourning wreath
Statues stoned invincible
A tomb of sons
Death's birth to all

Oh happy death
It's been too long
I've come to be with you again
My friend of death
Open your arms
I'll be your joyful native

A death eternal
A death as old as the stars
A death that's beautiful
Death takes us out of this world
A death certifiable
A death that's full of surprise
A death unconquerable
Death is the meaning of life

Oh happy death
It's been too long
I've come to be with you again
My friend of death
Open your arms
I'll be your joyful native

A funeral swoon (?)
My departed muse
From start to end
It's a beautiful truth

This body's star awaits
Anoint with gorgeous decay
Let's spin and spin in the earth
Let's make these skeletons wail

This body's star awaits
Anoint with gorgeous decay
Let's spin and spin in the earth
Let's make these skeletons wail

A death eternal
A death as old as the stars
A death that's beautiful
Death takes us out of this world
A death certifiable
A death that's full of surprise
A death unconquerable
Death is the meaning of life

Oh happy death
It's been too long
I've come to be with you again
My friend of death
Open your arms
I'll be your joyful native

Oh happy death
It's been too long
I've come to be with you again
My friend of death
Open your arms
I'll be your joyful native
