Lyrics
Zero's my number
Time is my hunter
I wanted you to heal me
But instead you set me on fire
We were out over the borders
I washed you in Holy water
We whispered our black prayers
And rose up in flames
Take me on your burnin' train
Take me on your burnin' train
White sun burnin'
Black wings beatin'
I ran my fingers 'cross the hollow of your stomach
As you lay breathing
With our shared faith
Rising dark and decayed
Take me and shake me from this mortal cage
Take me on your burnin' train
Take me on your burnin' train
Something's shining in the light 'neath your breast
The thick smell of you on my chest
In your bed of thorns
I brought you shining gifts
Wiped the sweat from your brow
And I touched your lips
Sheets stained with sweat
Outside the endless rain
Darlin', I'm blessed in your blood
And marked by Cain
Take me on your burnin' train
Take me on your burnin' train
Take me on your burnin' train
