I managed to get a hold of the real official Nahvalr lyrics for this song, although I think this cover has slightly altered lyrics. Of a wicked physick came the hanging-tree to Brainerd Street to swing by any other name your soul dead before your body and an open mouth to make open minds, not i am nothing, here to eat the more you breathe, the less you sleep the more you starve but the bile-swallower eats his fill
I found the official lyrics posted from the booklet! I came back to add the lyrics! Of a wicked physick came the hanging-tree to Brainerd Street to swing by any other name your soul is dead before your body and an open mouth to make open minds, not I am nothing, here to eat the more you breathe, the less you sleep the more you starve but the bile swallower eats his fill.
Thanks for this. I always referred to this comment as the only accurate interpretation of these lyrics. You're very close. See my other comment for the official Nahvalr lyrics. I got them from the physical release of the Nahvalr album.
