"De Selby (Part 1)" lyrics - HOZIER

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

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

But 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 'nos na hoiche
Trina cheile;
Le cheile, claochlaithe
Bhfuilis soranna sorcha
Ach tagais 'nos na hoiche
Is claochlu an ealain
Is ealain dubh i

Bhfuilis soranna sorcha
Ach tagais 'nos na hoiche
Trina cheile;
Le cheile, claochlaithe
Bhfuilis soranna sorcha
Ach tagais 'nos na hoiche
Is claochlu an ealain
Is ealain dubh i
