Sick mirrors (version) [live three]

Something
Something
Something
Something
Something cold
Something cold
Something old walks this way
Something cold
Something old
Something cold walks this way
Something black cracks something's back
And somethings black crack the red thing's back
Is the red thing cracked?
Is the black thing back?
But something old meets something cold
Something walks to the waters
I walk down to the waters
With my dogs by the river
With my dogs by the sea
I would never walk this forest
Without my dogs with me
Something cold
Something old
Something cold's walked to me
Something black broke the other thing's back
And something red was left for dead
But was he dead or was he dead or just looked dead?
Or was he red or black or red or just looked red?
And it's coming
Coming closer to eat me
Something black broke red thing's back
And something cold's coming to meet me
Coming to eat me
The mirrors are sick
I can't see anything
Coming from within it
My mirrors are diseased
Will someone mercurize them please
Vaporize them
Mercury
Vaporize them
Mercury
Vapor
Mercury
Mercury lurks in the way
Of the images
Scrying in the mirror
Mirror
Mirror
Scrying in the mirror
Mirror
Mirror
I'm scrying in this mirror
Mirror
Mirror
Angels warping me
Angels told me
They said
Diseased with my mirror
I'm diseased with my mirror
I'm displeased with my mirror
As it shows me
What I don't see
As I walk down to the sea
With my dogs with me
With my dogs with me
I would never walk this forest
Without my dogs with me
Walking to the sea
Where the horses are
Where the horses are
Where the man in the water
Stay in the water
Can I stay in the water?
If the water comes over me
Over me the water is flowing
Over me
Over me
Over me
Over me
May as well drown
In this beautiful sea
This beautiful sea
Now I see what was following
What was seen and what was following
Now I see what was following me
What I saw on the seashore
I will never say
What I saw there on the seashore
I will never say
What I saw there on the seashore
I will never say
What was there was sent to me
And it will never stay
It will never stay long
It will never stain me
It will sustain me
It will never stain me
It will sustain me
It will never stain me
It will never pain me
It will never claim me
Like the sea
Like the sea
Like the sea
Like the sea
Like the sea
I'd like the sea
Like the sea
Like the sea
I'd like it to claim me
Let it claim me
I let it claim me
Sea and the flames
Of the sea...
