Withered Hand Lyrics
Pluck your eyes out
With the master's withered hand
And the planets
Grope about without a plan
On your knees now
Because you'll only suffer more
You must suffer
Yes, you mustn't only die
And the heavens
Grinding down, you can't be well
Hanging heavy in a sky
As black as oil
Crawling slowly
Face down in the muck
Crawling slowly
With an outstretched
Withered hand
With the master's withered hand
And the planets
Grope about without a plan
On your knees now
Because you'll only suffer more
You must suffer
Yes, you mustn't only die
Grinding down, you can't be well
Hanging heavy in a sky
As black as oil
Crawling slowly
Face down in the muck
Crawling slowly
With an outstretched
Withered hand

I heard this song for the first time at the Austin Psych Fest 2015. John Dwyer was like a wizard, belting out the lyrics with the momentum of a hurricane behind him. It was a transcendent moment.
