[Verse 1]
Little hands on the iron rail
Knees in dust, mouth full of names
White chalk lines on the cold stone floor
We count the cracks like catechism
[Pre-Chorus]
One for the flame
Two for the ash
Three little bows
Then the black
[Chorus]
Kyrie, kyrie
Break the gate
Kyrie, kyrie
Judge the weight
Kyrie, kyrie
Small voice, grave
Kyrie, kyrie
Take, take, take
[Verse 2]
The page tears sharp in a fist like stone
Tongue on the salt of the vow we made
Tiny feet in the roar of the blast
Still we sing where the shadows stab
[Pre-Chorus]
Hands to the sky
Eyes to the dirt
Soft little psalms
Cut like a curse
[Chorus]
Kyrie, kyrie
Break the gate
Kyrie, kyrie
Judge the weight
Kyrie, kyrie
Small voice, grave
Kyrie, kyrie
Take, take, take
[Bridge]
La la la
Count the bones
La la la
Call us home
La la la
Let it fall
La la la
One and all
[Final Chorus]
Kyrie, kyrie
Break the gate
Kyrie, kyrie
Judge the weight
Kyrie, kyrie
Small voice, grave
Kyrie, kyrie
Take, take, take
