Current 93 – Our Lady Of Horsies lyrics

Our lady of rats
Our lady of wings
Our lady of smokes
Our lady of night
Our lady of smiles
Our lady of silence
Our lady of sickles
Our lady of womblight
Out lady of vulturine virginity
Our lady of vagina swamped
Oh with starlight and tears

This is the signature of all things
Signs written in crossedged eyes
Some parting spoken with tongue on teeth
Our lady of horsies

Our lady of love
Our lady of kaleidoscopes
Our lady of gold
Of stars and of blood
Our lady of laughter
Mother mine made of mashines
Our lady of lips
Our lady of dust
Our lady of dusk
Our lady of dirt

This is the signature of all things
Signs written in crossedged eyes
Some parting spoken with tongue on teeth
Our lady of horsies.

Our lady of destruction
Our lady of disolution
Our lady of desire
Our lady of deathage
Our lady who lays in the licorice night,
our lady who burns in the trickling night
Our lady of cancels
Our lady of candles
Of craps and of stoals
Our lady appearing.

This is the signature of all things
Signs written in crossedged eyes
Some parting spoken with tongue on teeth
Our lady of horsies

Our lady appearing in Rocking Horse Night
Our lady who falls and falls again into fields of rape
Our lady of breathing, of breaths
Who holds me in her secret cold spaces
Our lady who wheels in sadness
Our lady who waits in silence

This is the signature of all things
Signs written in crossedged eyes
Our lady who speaks in the dark
Our lady of horsies.

Our lady who dances in gaps
Our lady who dances in emptiness
Our lady of thorns
Our lady of sores
Our lady of wounds
Our lady of aid
Our lady of love
Who waits always through all pain
Our lady of loves and of lovers

This is the signature of all things,
Signs written in crossedged eyes
Some parting spoken with tongue on teeth
Our lady of horsies

Our lady of rape
Our lady of the rape
Our lady of the lost and the hopeless, the forgotten
Of the conquering and the conquered
Of the sightless and the starless

This is the signature of all things,
Signs written in crossedged eyes
Some parting spoken with tongue on teeth
Our lady

Our lady of stalls
Our lady of mangers
With the world in her womb
Our lady of gallows
Of crickets and robins
Of rough and raw roaring
Of the silent and circling
Of the stags and the deers that wait in her forest

And:
This is the signature of all things
Signs written in crossedged eyes
Some parting spoken with tongue in teeth
Our lady of trenches

Our lady of leverance
Who suffers in all things
Who rejoices on all things
Who gives birth to all things
Who gives death to all things
Our lady of purpose
Of hiring and hearing
Our lady of deaths heads
Of fools and of gold
Aneamic laughter of lady of cries
Of lady of christ
Our lady of crutches
Who waits for me at the end, the end
When I fall she shall wait for me
Our lady of smiles
Our lady of hope
All my love for you burns strong
You shall not desert me
