The Decemberists Severed Lyrics

[Verse 1]
I alight like a whisper
I alight with the lights out
And it won't take me long just to find you
And it won't take me long just to find you

[Chorus]
I'm allied to the winter
But don't you get clever
Don't you get clever
I'm allied to the landslide
Gonna leave you all severed
Gonna leave you all severed

[Verse 2]
I alone am the answer
I alone will make wrongs right
But in order to root out the cancer
It's got to be kept from the sunlight

[Chorus]
I'm allied to the winter
But don't you get clever
Don't you get clever
I'm allied to the landslide
Gonna leave you all severed
Gonna leave you all severed

[Verse 3]
I was born to a jackal
I was born in a whiteout
Gonna smother you all till I choke you
Gonna smother you all till you kick out

[Chorus]
I'm allied to the winter
But don't you get clever
Don't you get clever
I'm allied to the landslide
Gonna leave you all severed
Gonna leave you all severed
