Wine & Bread

Nina Kinert

Compositor: Nina Kinert

Wine and bread will feed us
You'll be banished from these halls
Is it a sacrifice?
Fruit on trees will haunt us
But the flavour of it all
Could this be paradise?

If you come for wine and bread
Earth has opened up, it’s mouth, it's ruby red
Go a–, go ahead

The violent light of childhood
In the valley down below
Gushing of pink and white
The loyal choice to do good
One more glass before you go though
Will you be mine tonight?

Wine and bread will feed us
The ground will open for us
Fruit on trees will haunt us
Like open mouths in chorus

If you've come for wine and bread
If you’ve comе repenting all the blood you'vе shed
If you've come for wine and bread
Should have left the house before the watershed
If you've come for wine and bread
If you've come to let go of what's in your head
If you've come for wine and bread
If you've come to lay beside me on my bed
Go a–, go ahead

If you’ve come for wine and bread
If you’ve come repenting all the blood you've shed
If you come for wine and bread
Take me in your arms we are the pulling thread
If you come for wine and bread
Wash your feet and lay beside me, rest your head
If you come for wine and bread
Wash your robe and lay beside me, sleepyhead

If you come for wine and bread
Ground just opened up, it’s mouth, it's ruby red
Go a–, go ahead
