Lyrics and translation
Original
Stretch the bones over my skin
stretch the skin over my head
i'm going to the holy land
stretch the marks over my eyes
burn the candles deep inside
yeah you know where i'm coming from
Give up to greed, you don't have to feed me
give up to fate, you don't have to need me
so let it go, let it go, let it go, won't you let it
drown me in you, drown me in you, drown me in you
Slip down the darkness to the mouth
damn the water burn the wine
i'm going home for the very last time
So throw it away, you don't have to take me
make no mistakes i'm what you make me
so let it go, let it go, let it go, won't you let it
drown me in you, drown me in you, drown me in you
I see you turn around and burning down
the feeling stars to sink
i feel the hurt surround me
please dissolve me
she's resolved to be
Heal my wounds without a trace
seal my tomb without my face
i'm going to the lonely place
Give up to greed, you don't have to feed me
give up to fate, you don't have to need me
so let it go, let it go, let it go, won't you let it
drown me in you, drown me in you, drown me in you
