The Gate (Live Demo)

Recorded by Steve Albini
Mixed by Logan Haynes

Lyrics:
Lay me down
Lower me into the deep
Laying down
I won’t remember a thing

The earth encircles the ashes 
Deserted in the dirt
Just waiting to wash away
The only trace
And your memory just comes and fades 
Hours are years of blur and grey
I think your hands felt like powered sand or a padded cage
Impossible to hold or to escape

So lay me down
Deeper into the dirt I sink
Lay me down
Lying lower than the weeds
Leave me spinning
Laying down
Lay me down

Like where water should flow
But still only sand remains
Storms of dust, your touch 
A cloud of haze
And all these memories feel like powdered sand or s padded cage 
Impossible to hold or to escape

murphy.
