I managed to get a hold of the real official Nahvalr lyrics for this song, although I think this cover has slightly altered lyrics. Of a wicked physick came the hanging-tree to Brainerd Street to swing by any other name your soul dead before your body and an open mouth to make open minds, not i am nothing, here to eat the more you breathe, the less you sleep the more you starve but the bile-swallower eats his fill
I found the official lyrics posted from the booklet! I came back to add the lyrics!

Thanks for this. I always referred to this comment as the only accurate interpretation of these lyrics. You're very close. See my other comment for the official Nahvalr lyrics. I got them from the physical release of the Nahvalr album.
I'd kill for a studio version of this
Nice, I love all the little scraps of Dan's work that turn up on youtube.

Of a wicked physick came the
hanging-tree to Brainerd Street
to swing by any other name
your soul dead before your body
and an open mouth to make open minds,
not i am nothing, here to eat
the more you breathe, the less
you sleep
the more you starve
but the bile-swallower
eats his fill
how did you acquire them?
@@jordanpremozic350 Bought the Nahvalr cd from 2008. It contains lyrics to all the songs.

Meme Lord Upon multiple listens I'm beginning to think he actually says "we make open mouths"
@@elk3407 Thanks! Edited for convenience

Dan Barret said he will never release the lyrics for this song, but your interpretation is pretty much accurate.

fitting for an end
somebody has the lyrics to this? I'm really interested in this song!
+Kevin Berger Hey man, thanks!
So... what are the lyrics?
Does anyone know who sings backing vocals here?
I believe it's Thom Wasluck of Planning for Burial.
