LYRICS: Hozier – De Selby (Part 1)

[Verse 1]
At last, when all of the world is asleep
You take in the blackness of air
The likes of a darkness so deep
That God at the start couldn’t bear

[Verse 2]
And sit unseen, with only the inner upheld
Your reflection can’t offer a word
To the bliss of not knowin’ yourself
With all mirrorin’ gone from the world

[Verse 3]
Still the mind, rejectin’ this new empty space
Fills it with somethin’ or someone
No closer could I be to God
Or why he would do what he’s done

[Outro]
Bhfuilis soranna sorcha
Ach tagais ‘nós na hoíche
Trína chéile; le chéile
Bhfuilis soranna sorcha
Claochlaithe is claochlú an ealaín
Is ealaín dubh í
Bhfuilis soranna sorcha
Ach tagais ‘nós na hoíche
Trína chéile; le chéile
Bhfuilis soranna sorcha
Claochlaithe is claochlú an ealaín
Is ealaín dubh í
