lyrics

It was a greeting that never felt like one. One command.
And the hounds fell silent. There’s a day in the book that will never dawn.
Adrift at day . Wear the jewels now . Name them all in speech.
You have been so far away in deserts of purity.

I took I her hands between my fingers as if they were living fire.
She was afraid of the silence - and cured ( …by the Devil himself ? )
All the the wrong memories , they looked like the ghost of six .

You have been so far away in deserts of purity.
Where the roads are hard to tell apart from the undergrowth.

No. She said no.
“You are the only one , who cannot leave.”
It was my own funeral .
Inhaled, as if to live long
It drove me like a hound at distance
No those are not the flowers of god.
It was a tickle by the feather of death .
Each morning dawned with a different pain.

You fools mistook it for the sun.
When time itself fell into the sea.
You have been so far away in the deserts of purity.
Where the roads are hard to tell apart from the undergrowth.
