Dirty your face
With longing and grace God given
Suffer her heart and love her when your love goes unrequited
Where the cool winds blow I must surely go
For my love calls below to drag her from the depths of my soul

When will I see her again
The other side of friends
The darkened claws of death
The empty breath desire

Dirty your face
With longing and grace God given
Suffer her heart and love her when your love goes unrequited
Restless in my speech
And rootless in my teach
So vacent in my breach
I drive the dirt of her garden sorrow

She'll never listen again
No other lovers to bend
Just rotten apples to eat
Just letter yellowed distant scorn

Dirty your face
With longing and grace God given
Suffer her heart and love her when your love goes unrequited
Life just fades away
Purity just begs
Dust to dust we're wired into sadness
