Blood and Honey Lyrics
I found you lying where I drowned you
I found you lying where I lay with you
Where I threw you in the water
Where I drowned you in the river
Where I watched you roll away
Where I watched your body roll away
Roll away
Roll away
From everything we think we know
We'll lie down in the warm green grass
And the sun will shine on our pale shape
Our blood will flow black in the dirt
And a black rose will grow where we laid
I found you lying where I lay with you
Where I threw you in the water
Where I drowned you in the river
Where I watched you roll away
Where I watched your body roll away
Roll away
Roll away
From everything we think we know
We'll lie down in the warm green grass
And the sun will shine on our pale shape
Our blood will flow black in the dirt
And a black rose will grow where we laid

The part from "We'll lie..." on is spoken, followed by some wordless singing/moaning. Excellent, particularily on Feel Good Now.
Murder ballad with some really sexy/creepy/monstrous bits. 'Nough said.
One of the best and most underrated tracks on CoG. I wish Jarboe had been given a bit more time on this album tbh. The last few songs between "Trust Me", "Real Love", and "Blind Love" are an unfortunate doldrums on an otherwise perfect album. It's always felt very front-heavy to me. "Children of God" redeems the ending, but I can't help but feel like there should have been another Jarboe song towards the end.
