About

The expression that titles this song (The Wounded Shepherd) it’s taken from a poem by mystic and catholic poet San Juan de la Cruz (St. John of the Cross) called Cántico espiritual (Spiritual chant):

Vuélvete, paloma,
que el ciervo vulnerado
por el otero asoma,
al aire de tu vuelo, y fresco toma.

El Ciervo Vulnerado Lyrics

[Instrumental Intro]

[Verse 1]
I've been drinkin' black myrrh again
The closer we part
I needed to touch your lips
With the nail in my heart
The night that you caught me
My coffin did walk
I fell at your mercy
I fell in your grave
Meccamputechture
That stands in my way
The younger I stay
An elderly child
The longer the mirror gives birth
To the death that I file

[Chorus]
If you consume me, I will not let you go
If you walk right through me
My voice will taint your throat
Blessed be, blessed be the wrong I've done
Woah-oh-oh

[Verse 2]
Someone is watching us
Someone has found
Fluorescent ligaments
On a black and white tile
Why do you call them
If your kingdom won't come
The younger I stay
Forever I rot

[Chorus]
If you consume me, I will not let you go
If you walk right through me
My voice will taint your throat
Blessed be, blessed be the wrong I've done
Oh-oh-oh

[Interlude]
Because the flies my mouth spill
Bare the children at play

[Instrumental Outro]
