Tall is the night
That drinks up the day
It's a mountain
It's a mountain
Tall is the night
That eclipses the day
It's a mountain
It's a mountain
Of decay
In the Wall that never wakes
The gilded bird flies away
From its nest of stakes
We've got nothing here
Unless you're thirsty for eggs of decay
Long is the day
That holds only night
It's a mountain
A screaming mountain
Long is the day
At the mouth of night
It's a mountain
In decay
They tell me I will catch more flies
With sugar than with vinegar
Anybody here in need of flies
No, I didn't think so
We've got nothing here
The walls are wet
We've got nothing here
Unless you're thirsty
For eggs of decay
