[Verse 1]
I walk the lintels
Stained red, still warm
Hoofprint halos
On the threshing floor
Goat eyes glassing
As the shepherds choke
Lambskins hanging
Like abandoned oaths
[Chorus]
I am the angel of the thirteenth door
Passing over painted frames of gore
Reap doors down in the blood that pours
Sheep and goats fall quiet on the floor
One last breath
One last blink
Meeting of fatality
Where all livestock sink
[Verse 2]
Cracked clay basins
Spill a river thin
Veins of a village
Draining from within
Mothers counting
Names that come up lost
Fathers bargaining
On a ledger of frost
[Chorus]
I am the angel of the thirteenth door
Passing over painted frames of gore
Reap doors down in the blood that pours
Sheep and goats fall quiet on the floor
One last breath
One last blink
Meeting of mortality
Where all blood sinks
[Bridge]
Step
By step
I weigh the worth of bone
Flesh
To dust
I never walk alone (yeah)
Every marked threshold
Every shivering home
Knows
My cloak of clotted foam
[Chorus]
I am the angel of the thirteenth door
Passing over painted frames of gore
Reap doors down in the blood that pours
Sheep and goats fall quiet on the floor
One last breath
One last blink
Face-to-face with fatality
I am what you drink
