...And You Will Know Us by the Trail of Dead - Taken by the Hand

Man and his wife were walking naked in the night
Long tall shadows flickered in the candlelight
As she leads him to the sand, she takes him by the hand
And they begin to bond
And they sang this song knowing not their wrong

Tan electric pours out from these naked pores
Worlds collide, never passed this way before
And she takes him to the sand, where they meet the other man
And they begin to bond
And they sang this song knowing not their wrong

Standing alone she takes him by his hand
Floating along she leads him through the sand where they meet the other men
They'll be standing as one, she makes him understand when she takes the other men
They'll be floating all as one when she takes them

Mirrors of dawnlight reflecting the three-sided star
Swift as the arrows descend on the battle
The light and the dark parted by rivers of fire
Come lay you down by your wounded love as she dies
All alone
Come lay you down as she dies all alone

Silence descends on the fields as the moon watches on
Bloodied and ragged the fighters continue up
Those who remain rushing to waters so calm
Feeling their bodies lifted up as they drown
All alone
Come to field as you drown all alone

Give me the world, his shrill voice demands
Wonders at the cuts and bruises left upon his hands
Then giving him the word, giving him the world
They begin to bond
And they sang this song knowing not their wrong

Standing alone she takes him by the hand, takes him by the hand
Floating along she leads him through the sand where they meet the other men
They'll be standing alone, she makes him understand when she takes him by the hand
They'll be floating along, she takes him, takes them
