Mark Lanegan - Old Swan Lyrics






Clean
New roads unfurled
Light of the world
Redeemed
Your humble child
Don't leave me here
Let me come with you

And though my soul is not worth saving
My mistress and my queen
Your spirit is larger than my sin

It does not lie
It does not lie

In this faith that we live and die
I give myself to you

Sustained
No need to explain
Fade into the sun
The evening kisses your rays

Sweet mother
Queen of the world
I'm free
Free at last

Dear Mother
Queen of the earth and air
Let cool water flow
Sweet mother
Queen of the world
Let cool water flow

Claim this land
Noth south east west
To the wind you dance
Sweet mother
I give myself to you
And have no other
Have no other than you

Clean
Through the eternal
Through dead seasons
Sail to the sun
My mother and my queen
Honest and serene

Praise God
God in everything
God in everyone
Way up
Way up high
Way up high mama
All my darkness cleaned away
Sweet mother
Sweet sweet mother
Sweet mother
Queen of the world
Take me in your arms
Let me live again
Clean

    u2 rip off

    B.... J....

    you clearly know zilch about Mark Lanegan

    B.... J....

    then go listen to U2

    B.... J....

    Cuz U2 is known forjuxtaposing the darkness of rock bottom, the beauty of the mundane, being the most consistently surprising collaborators with the greatest musicians alive today - all in all, Lanegan's been on over 50 albums - and of course, U2 is most definitely known for Mark Lanegan's inimitable voice and $27 concert tickets.

    B.... J....

    Obviously stumbled across this with no real taste before hand to comment that nonsense

  8. 0.... ....

    Awesome video it goes perfect with the song

    I can’t listen to this hymn to the Divine Feminine without crying.

    your spirit is larger than my sin. M Lanegan is a great poet with a one of a kind soul reaching deep and beautiful voice....thanks for the badass video

  12. A.... C....

    Beautiful song. Perfect way to end the album. If you haven't heard Gargoyle, pick it up. It's a masterpiece.
