Severed - The Decemberists

I alight like a whisper

I alight with the lights out

And it won’t take me long just to find you

And it won’t take me long just to find you

I’m allied to the winter

But don’t you get clever

Don’t you get clever

I’m allied to the landslide

Gonna leave you all severed

Gonna leave you all severed

I alone am the answer

I alone will make wrongs right

But in order to root out the cancer

It’s got to be kept from the sunlight

I’m allied to the winter

But don’t you get clever

Don’t you get clever

I’m allied to the landslide

Gonna leave you all severed

Gonna leave you all severed

I was born to a jackal

I was born in a whiteout

Gonna smother you all 'til I choke you

Gonna smother you all 'til you kick out

I’m allied to the winter

But don’t you get clever

Don’t you get clever

I’m allied to the landslide

Gonna leave you all severed

Gonna leave you all severed
