Oh, American Rose you put a thorn in my side
Can’t you see that the plane is leaving but
I just can’t take the ride
Oh no I can’t fly back to England now
I got your breath in my blood too strong
And I knew that night down in Tennessee
I was fated to sing this song.
Down on my knees after Memphis
Nowhere to run
Just the sad country music on the radio driving me on
Down on my knees after Memphis
And feelin’ so small
Like a faded country star
When there’s no hope left at all
Oh I’m down, down on my knees

I remember the night when my dog died
I was sitting just smiling by his side
When my Daddy came in
He could see I was grinning
He thought I was a cruel and a cold
Six year old
Oh pack up your bone
It’s time to roll on
I know you wouldn’t want no sad song
Though I’ll be lonely as anything
There’s no good that tears could bring
I’ve known all along
That you were born to be gone
You sure had somewhere to go to
Sure had a reason to run
But we had some fun together

I do my job and its pleasing to me.
I'm getting so I can sail upon the roughest sea.
On the roughest sea I do alright.
But when my work is over and done
I get to being a lonely one,
I need someone to take the wheel at night.
And someone to navigate 'til light comes,
But most of all I need a maker of islands,
Rested in the golden sunlight where the seas are kind
She could make me islands for my peace of mind,
If I could only see her.
Look into her eyes.
Then I'd lie easy
I'd lie easy
I'd lie easy

Jane can't tell me if her hands
Are trembling with emotion
Of grief or fear or joy.
Jane looks down at her brown shoes.
She knows that the shine upon them
Should please someone like you.
Someone like you would like to take Jane off
To run on sands so white.
To buy her boat trips if you could
And watch her drink tea.
Jane can't tell me if her heart
Is racing with emotion

I did not meet you soul to soul.
I felt the kiss and missed the words that you spoke.
Your skin so soft and warm on mine,
Sighing like the best was done and gone.
And the way that I was playing it was just one
night with you
Opened my eyes and you were smiling.
Oh darling I'm further and further and further
>From the way that I thought when we met.
Isn't it amazing to watch our love growing?
You know it takes my breath away yet.
Went lookin' in the city streets
And in the ways of the country
And all the time what I needed
Oh all the time just what I needed
Was lookiil' to find me

Build me a river within my thoughts
Build me a boat I can put my songs in
Build me a river within my thoughts
Won’t you build me a boat I can put my songs in
Oh yeah and send them to him
He was the singer for me, don’t you know it
Found love in the strength of his song
When I’m weary and I know that he’s gone
I just drink, drink deep
Drink the sweet wine of his song
Oh drink!
He was the singer for me, don’t you know it
Found love in the strength of his song
When I’m weary and I know that he’s gone
I just drink, drink deep
Drink the sweet wine of his song

Glow little spark glow brightly in the embers of dying fire
See the people come run to their windows
What manner of lightning this
Oh spirit, spirit beautiful
Oh spirit, spirit beautiful
Swim little bubble swim lightly, bubble on a silent pool
See the people come run to their windows
What manner of ocean this
Grow little seed grow brightly resting in a nest of earth
See the people come run to their windows

Farewell Plymouth, your morning
Cold and grey
Is painting shadows on my thoughts
And we’re bound for Norway
Joseph I know you’re trusting me to see you right
And I know you can’t stand the fighting
For one more night
Joseph the mud gives way to coral somewhere
And the hours of light they last and last
We’ll see no hostile flag then from craft unknown
We will have grown free from sighing
Singing the dolphin through
Singing the dolphin through
Singing the dolphin through

Diamond of dreams
Shine on diamond - of dreams
What would we do if you left us alone
You give us the canvas to paint our futures on
You help us to bear our confusion and pain
And you tell us we’re not dreamin’ in vain

The light in the crooner's life is an old torch song
Flaming up for his first loves -
Misty romancing and moonlighting dancing into dawn
"You are my sweet theme song
You linger when the spotlights fade
With my sweet theme song I've got it made
Just love me
Run to meet me when I come home
Take my feelings,
Show them a new day.
Make me say;
I will sing again
Jus tlike the brown eyes of autumn years
Singing to the yellow moon
‘The dawn is soon coming'
I will touch again
Dreams in the lonely glass at 4am
And walk onto the foggy street

Call me diamond, call me gold
I have been bought, been sold
I've been hung up, been laid
been exalted, been betrayed
I've been killed, I have been maimed
I've been freed, been tamed.
Oh, come on, come on, dig my mine.
Oh, come on, come on kiss me, kiss me
all along my spine.
Call me diamond, call me gold
Been in the fire so hot, been in the ice so cold
Been in the summer, winter, spring and fall
Been in the everything, I've been in the nothing at all.

There’s a lot of lights threading up the highway tonight
And I’ve been goin’ nowhere too long
But there’s a lot of signals getting through to me now
I hope that help’s coming soon
And I will be gone
If only this highway stretched out so far
So I could stand naked shouting from a far star
And my voice would get right t you in your hired car
Stranded in Iowa
Stranded in Iowa
You’d better get the breakdown squad out
And get me rollin’ on
‘Cause I can’t keep my thoughts out of sight
You’d better get the breakdown squad out
Get me rollin’ on
Oh I need to see the stars slip by at night
I’m stranded all right

No turing back I gave a small cry
Stirring in your sleep you caught my thought
So close and so far is a bad way to leave you
Once more the sea shore dry
Next time around lover
Next time around redeemer
Next time around saviour
We'll put our love together and sing
Remember, through it all I loved you
And you knew I loved you
So it wasn't such a bad one
Son it wasn't such a bad one
No brother but

Meanwhile the rain keeps on
Splashing down my window
I could cry for a soft warm sunset
And a clear night
Oh my, my, just we two with nothing to do
The next morning
Wish I could throw my books away
Go and lie on a beach somewhere
Let the sun and the warm, warm air
Drive the rain from my thoughts
Wish I could find a friend who would
Stay by me
And she’d look so beautiful
Let her eyes and her warm, warm love
Drive the rain from my thoughts
Meanwhile the rain keeps on
Splashing down my window
I could cry for a soft warm sunset
And a clear night
But the rain keeps on

Lately I've seen your face come close in on mine like sunshine
Lately I've heard your voice come close in on mine like sunshine
And I know your life is running close to me
Peacocks in the first, kokilas in the fifth
Sing like Jayadeva

Krendo, how long we been fighting
How long we been dying
And still we return
Krendo, we gypsies in starships
We just don’t know what fear is
We’ve died too many times
But this time you’ve got me, it’s one up for you
This body is done
Childhood, another damn childhood
Sure I know that you’ll miss me
But don’t count the years
One day you’ll see my starship
Making your heart beat just a little bit faster
When old Redbone flies again
Stand aside yeah, pale mother of mine
Your boy is going
There ain’t no force field that you have
That’s strong enough to keep him back
Stand aside yeah, pale mother of mine
I played the blue-eyed boy for you
Just as long as I could do
And now I’m through
Krendo, how long we been fighting
How long we been dying
And still we return
Krendo, we gypsies in starships
We just don’t know what fear is
Guess we’ve died too many times
Look out here comes my starship
Making your heart beat just a little bit faster

I can’t buy you no more drinks baby
My time is gettin’ low
I got to go get Louis, you got to go get a new beau
Oh, go get yourself a new man
Go get a new beau
Why don’t you try living on Easy Street if you can, where the
Cold winds don’t blow
Me I clearly state I am just an accident of fate
I’m a guy who’s lost the way
Lost the way to Easy Street
Easy, Easy Street
Louis I guess you know I’m on the run
Back street diners and a long road
Oh Louis I guess you know I’ll get you someday (I will)
And I know where you’re living
It’s on Easy Street

When I was born into this world
I was so easily fooled
I didn’t know which way was up
I was anyone’s tool
I was anyone’s radio receiver
Anybody’s eager believer
Till I found out
Some people you know they try a little harder
And some people you know they try a little harder
To draw back the veil
Let the truth out, the truth out

Did you know that I loved you that day
We were too young
The music straining in my ears
With my hopes, with my fears
And my tears when I found that you had gone
Do you remember those days
Me and you on the hill playing games
One moment crimson pirates
The next we were
Violets on the wind
Do you remember we were angels in disguise
Living through those days so strong
But you’ve got to move along, move along

Audrey my dear, I've been waitin' so long for you girl
Won't you let it all come on through
Tonight won't you come and make love to me
Oh Audrey my dear
Just look at us, walin' in the snowy street with our collars ut
I don't want to go to another party, 'cos I've had enough
And you, you look so lovely, I want very much
To take your clothes off and hold you very close
Someplace where it's quiet enough

My heart melts at the thought of two people
achingly in love - "Living apart for the life we're
going to build". - "Romance on the top of the
podium yet again and geography just scrapes bronze"!
That I feel strongly enough about it to write a
song is entirely due to overexposure, as a child,
to 'Family Favourites'.
Now we're livin' apart for the life we're gonna
build when the time is right.
But the time gets stretched in she Space that’s between us,
Squeeze the minutes
I wanna hear you whisperin' to me
I wanna kiss you in the night, in the night
chorus:
Squeeze the minutes
Chase the hands round
Anything to get you
Sooner than has to be here in my arms
Squeeze the minutes
Squeeze the minutes
Squeeze the minutes
I want you here in my arms
As you said it yourself in your note it wasn't
such a bad photograph of you
But if lookin' was all to the way you are then I
could keep my heart more
I wouldn't mind this livin' apart so
Maybe wouldn't think of it all the time
chorus:
Oh I threw it away the thought - "I wouldn't
wait, couldn't wait for one love".
I only think of the way you understand me and
I know that it's worthwhile
I only think of the way that you are
It's makin' me know what I want - oh what I want

We weren’t ready for the country me and you
Just a couple of city boys
We couldn’t even sing the blues
We couldn’t even light a fire or find
The polestar
Give me suburban moonshine
You know I was raised on dogfights
Weaned on the streetlights
I’m a residential boy
Didn’t ask to get born here
In the city I just got dumped
And I just got thumped
When I tried to run away
You didn’t ask to get born here neither
But now’s the time we can spread our wings
Make it out where the clear brook sings
And time can slip away, slip away
Without Love
See him out through the window
In the streets below us
Keepin’ his sadness out of view
He’s so lonely, he’s so low
He’s like I was before you
Without love, oh how low I was
And I only know now how low I was without love
Pull down the shade
You know that I was made to love you
And only now I know how bad it was
Without you in my arms
Without you in my heart
I was only playing a part
I was hardly living at all
Without love, oh how low I was

Lady I want you to know that you’re
One of the finest
I’ve met all kinds you know
I’ve met the dream makers and the world shakers
But you’re the one who fills my heart with love

Sweet love the words that made you cry
They came from one that don't have love like we do
Even if you'd give him all your sweet love
Probably turn his back and walk away,
Lookin' for a trick and he wouldn't understand
That you just want to stretch out your hand
You know he's closed himself to all the grief and pain that he can't stand
And he's bound his heart with an iron band
Come dry your tears like the sun dries the rain
Deep is the river running through my life
Full shines the sun upon it
The girl I love swims there all day long
You know she is bright as the flowers of the forest
The tender tears in your smiling eyes
They meld me right to my soul
We have to part now for a while
But our lives will cross for ever
You'll bless every place you pass through
So much good in all you do.
I can't understand how anyone could hurt you so bad
So sad to see them hide from what they are
Me I know you like I know the song in my soul

When winter came this year she found me well prepared for her
The flame well fed with pine, shuttered windows oakwood doors
From the low dales come the fiddler, gave his tunes their flight
Don't know her name or the dance that became her so well
From topmost limb of night's dark tree
Tonight my lantern light floats free
The ladies danced so well, the ladies danced so light
But it was not mortal step drew me from my guests to meet the night
Snow lies deep with friends unseen
I will light my eyes to Venus green
Holding my life with a hope
When the midnight skies rise,

Evie I loved those days so well,
The way you looked at me so warm and how you cared
Now those days are no longer
Those days are no longer
But I remember you so well and the music we shared
Oh what a sweet song Evie
Oh what a sweet song Evie
Oh Evie, what a sweet, sweet, song
Oh what a sweet song Evie
Oh what a sweet song Evie
Oh Evie, what a sweet, sweet, song
He always was my Evie’s favourite singer you know
We used to sit up late at night and the stars would glow
And the pale moonlight would shine around
My Evie’s eyes so brown
And Buddy Holly’s silver sounds would crown it
Oh what a sweet song Evie
Oh what a sweet song Evie
Oh Evie, what a sweet, sweet, song
Oh what a sweet song Evie
Oh what a sweet song Evie

There was no foolin'.
Stretched out her hand and led me,
Let her long hair fall soft on my cheek
She made it so clear
She would go with me one time
And dance for me a dance so sweet
It took all my love to show that girl the sun
It took all my love to show that girl the sun
Took all my strength just to watch her goin'
Like she was no one
Oh! Belinda I'm glad you closed your door
It could've been rough
If you'd seen me fallin'

Soft lapped the bark boats
A wounded shoulder hurt me not
Snake - like branches quietly hid my eyes so bright in the swamp-red sun
Soft edged the foreign words
Coloured by the dark waves splash in the mist
Brown the breasts and purple-stained
Dye deep-pounded with the stone
The warm wind now lifts the haze
I looked and I caught my breath
And I raised my head up high
And I shouted out loud in my soul
Beautiful stranger I'm glad I found you
Bright the sky above my head
Streaked with red and yellow wing
Warm the mud between my toes
Darkest green the inland trail
Distant now the bark boats
Golden beads on silver wire of sea
Long bathed by salty spray
Visions float on the dry earths smell
Drifting back through younger days
I looked and I caught my breath
And I shouted out loud in my soul
Beautiful stranger I'm glad I found you
Moist and cool the river bank
Laid me down against a tree
Remembering as in a dream
Shoulder cut in the dark waves splash
In that place no wound there was
Only a ring of finest bronze there gleamed
Soft lapped the back boats
Brown the breasts and purple stained
River green reflect the gaze
I looked and I caught my breath
And I raised my head up high
And I shouted out loud in my soul

"The world moves on and leaves a tear".
"Warmth, dazzle are gone".
"It gives you conflict of emotions".
Dragged wailing into existence by the unnatural
and largely hopeless act of rendering Chinese
poetry into English, they ended up here!
Cold, cold as a crystal, the world moves on and leaves a tear
We both used to see the same thing when we closed our eyes in loving
I'd like to believe there's more wine in that glass
But a shiver in the night says
"Cut your losses
Cut your losses - oh run"
chorus:
Warmth, dazzle are gone
Gone from the sun as the year moves on
Warmth, dazzle are gone
Gone from the sun as the year moves on
Oh! dazzle, it's got no place in my life anymore
Loud in the deep night
The cold,
The cold cracks like a whip - like a whip
Idle dreams of the far away, they got you in the lead still.
I taste doubt on my lips now,
Don't know if you're stayin', goin'
Fresh paint on the landscape
I really don't know what to think
bout our love
Cold misty rain in tangled threads falls on me
chorus:
A dream can be all that’s free sometimes,
I know the feelin’ well.
A dream got a grip like winter,
Hold you back from all your dealings.
Set your eyes on a distance, pin a heart on your sleeve.
Give you conflict,
Give you a conflict of emotions
And you can’t break away

Hey I know your faces and you've sent them here before
Drinking my wine, dropping your ash on my floor, I'm waiting
And when you call, bring it all
I'm thin and I'm getting thinner
Hey I'm a hungry man and you know I ain't taling 'bout grits
Yeah I'll bid for the puzzle 'cos I think I know how it fits
You could be fat as a hog, still you want to chew it
One day you're gonna find out - hot dog doesn't do it
Warm heart pastry
Talkin' bout warm hot pastry sure nuf I am
Hey I'm a hungry man and you know I ain't talkin'bout grits

Edinburgh on Sunday night, very little happening,
Nowhere to go
I looked up from my drink in the Drummon bar
I saw it was her and my heart was beating so
Just meeting that girl again did it,
Made me see what I’d closed off
I had forgotten what she meant to me
And how she’d stood by me when things were rough
She said «Oh baby never sell yourself short
For me you got it, I got faith in you
Only way you could lose it you know
Is if you close off the love that’s in you.»
Trim up your love light, love mine,
Trim up your love light, love mine,
Trim it up, trim it up, trim it up
Trim it up, trim it up, trim it up
Trim up your love light, love mine
Let it shine, shine, shine.
At night I would sing in the Crown bar
It brought me down, it was emptier day by day
That darling girl she’d come up behind me
She’d whisper «I love you, send your blues away».
She’d say «Oh baby never sell yourself short
For me you got it, I got faith in you
Only way you could lose it you know
Is if you close off the love that’s in you
Don’t close it off, don’t close it off.»
Come ten o’clock we moved out to the street
We looked in each other’s eyes
We had this special song we used to sing
Just to keep from crying - it went like this:
Trim up your love light, love mine,
Trim up your love light, love mine,
Trim it up, trim it up, trim it up
Trim it up, trim it up, trim it up
Trim up your love light, love mine

A relationship was being ended.
She sent me a book - "Famous freezing cold railway journeys",
Instead of a hint, what I got was an intimate
knowledge of the Transiberian route!
Following up with, "Wheels across the Steppes"
I felt myself trundling through the crisp snow
and I could have introduced you to the
population of Urkutz station by "Chuffing into hostile terrain".
Oh how I knew, it, I could see there was a change.
It was written in your eyes. It was - oh written across your face
And when you told me I saw flashin' of a flag,
Heard the rollin' wheels beneath me.
I swear that I was movin'
There by your side but so far away
Mercury drops, there's nothing to say
chorus:
I can't hold this room still
Got the towns flashin' by
Got the faces at the stations
It's colder so much colder now
And I just can't stop this Transibeflan Express,
Transiberian Express.
And you bought it, you bought my ticket, ticket
Through the pine trees and they're whisperin' of blood
In the field of my vision I got samovars and overcoats
Into Kirov there's a pink stare of daybreak
Falling over the town.
Then I can hear your voice
"Only one thing more" and you tell me 'bout him
"Only one thing more" but the train is speeding
chorus:
Thirteen hundred miles from Moscow, snow is everywhere.
We could have been so warm together.
Instead you put me here
Will I be travelling on this line for evermore
Through forest, steppes and hills,
Through Perm and Omsk and Urkutz
And at my soul the loss of you.
Feeling at my core the grip of winter

"To the white man nature was a wilderness infested with wild animals and savage people.
To us it was tame, earth was bountiful and we were surrounded with the blessings of the Great Mystery".
Chief Luther Standing Bear
"We saw the Great Spirit's work in almost everything; sun, moon, trees, wind and mountains.
Sometimes we approached him through those things. Was that so bad"?
Walking Buffalo
"The Sioux knew that man's heart away from nature becomes hard; he knew that lack of respect for growing things soon led to lack of respect for humans too".
Chief Luther Standing Bear
>From pastures of plenty, sailin’ in with the gold
"Free land for the taking" they said
And they told of the primitive red man.
chorus:
"Naked in the river he stands
His arms stretched out to the sky
He’s worshipping the spirits of the land
And his song to the moon
Is the savage wolf-cry
Great moon, hawk moon
Hoop moon, hawk moon
Hawk moon -stretch out your wings

Oh Carol oh,
Won’t you let this red rose grow
Don’t kill it Carol
This red rose that I hold in my hand
It’s the smallest flower I’ve seen
One bud only just starting to show
And the leaves are the lightest green
It’s had its share of the rain
It needs some kisses to light its fiery flame again
One cruel lie and it could die
Oh Carol oh,
Won’t you let this red rose grow
Don’t kill it Carol
It’s looking for a place to live outside all space and time
Where there will be no need for it to fade
There is a secret garden that I think we could find
Lots of sunshine there, just a touch of shade
Oh Carol oh,
Won’t you let this red rose grow
Don’t kill it Carol
This red rose that I hold in my hand
It could grow to be so strong
Born one night as I lay in your arms
Created in a lover’s song
It’s only just seen the light
It could easily slip back into the gentle night
One cruel lie and it could die

Billy and me were the best kind of friends
We were drinking every night
And most every night Billy’d keep the good times rollin’
But every once in a while he’d get a look in his eye
Like he was lost and he couldn’t go on
He’d just say:
It ain’t easy sometimes to see where you’re goin’
It ain’t easy sometimes to see where you’re goin’
Billy and me we’d take the Southside bus
‘bout once in every week
He’d leave me in the bar and then he’d go off strollin’
He’d be back in an hour with money to burn
But he’d never say where he’d been to
He’d just say:
It ain’t easy sometimes to see where you’re goin’
It ain’t easy sometimes to see where you’re goin’
There is a desert where no life does move
There is a darkness where no light does shine
Nobody can take your first step out of there
You got to do it yourself, you got to do it yourself
Friday night I was waitin’ in the Southside bar like before
Two, three hours went by Billy still wasn’t showin’
You know when I found him he was hurt real bad
And bleedin’ like I have never seen
He just said:
It ain’t easy sometimes to see where you’re goin’
It ain’t easy sometimes to see where you’re goin’
Call out your doctor, call out your nurse,
Call out your preacher too
You can call out your doctor, call out your nurse,
Call out your preacher too
But the will to live, you got to do that yourself
There’s no other way

I know where you’re goin’
You’re goin’ to see us
The crowd’ll be warming and starting to buzz
When we come on
You can keep on staring
We’re gonna play so tight
All the crowd’ll be starin’ the rest of the night
When we come on
Hit the stage we’re gonna throw the power
Gonna get there in under an hour
Gonna ride there ahead of time - ‘s gonna be fine
Are you gonna hear the music
Heat’s risin’ all around
Look we’re livin’ in the sound
Sing the high notes - lift my head

I never want to see you lonely again
Cause I know, life is to love forever
When I see you standing all alone in the wind
I believe we can fly, so high above
You know I always ask for more emotion
Oh, whenever there’s a night you need love
Call my name and to you I’ll run
Feeling in a heart, wild and young
Passion making two into one
Whenever there’s a night you need love
I will make it shine like the sun
Sometimes I reach to touch you again
And I know, the spirit will live forever
Now I want you as my lover and my friend
Cause I know in time we can fly sky high above
You know I always ask for more emotion
Oh, whenever there’s a night you need love
Call my name and to you I’ll run
Feeling in a heart, wild and young
Passion making two into one
Whenever there’s a night you need love
I will make it shine like the sun
And the magic can come alive
Only time will tell who cast the spell of love
Always give for love
Whenever there’s a night you need love
Call my name and to you I’ll run
Feeling in a heart, wild and young
Passion making two into one
Whenever there’s a night you need love

Running where the boys run free
Burning up the sky
Chasing the angels
Another restless night
That's when I hear those voices
Calling me to push the edge
I wanna feel my blood rise
I feel it in my hands
I make the ultimate escape
Searching for the phantom eyes
Under cover of darkness
I'm gonna make something happen
I'm gonna take my chances and ride
Refrain:
Running where the boys run free
Burning up the sky
Chasing the angels
Be my fantasy tonight
Someone out there waits for me
Got you in my sights
Chasing the angels
Going straight through heaven tonight
Oh, tonight
I see you in my dreams
We're going up where we belong
Never coming back to Earth
As we go racing for the sun
Beyond space and time
Up where the twilight turns to black
Other than it has to be
We come to get it as one
I think I'm heading for the break point
I gotta make this vision alive
Refrain
Running where the boys run free
Burning up the sky
Chasing the angels
Be my fantasy tonight
Someone out there waits for me
Got you in my sights
Chasing the angels
Be my fantasy tonight
Refrain
Going straight through heaven tonight

I thought that dreams belonged to other men
'Cause each time I got close
They'd fall apart again
I feared my heart would beat in secrecy
I faced the nights alone
Oh, how could I have known
That all my life I only needed you
Almost paradise
We're knockin' on Heaven's door
Almost paradise
How could we ask for more
I swear that I can see forever in your eyes
Paradise
It seems like perfect love's so hard to find
I'd almost given up
You must have read my mind
And all these dreams I've saved for a rainy day
They're finally comin' true
I'll share them all with you
'Cause now we hold the future in our hands
Oh, almost paradise
We're knockin' on Heaven's door
Almost paradise
How could we ask for more
I swear that I can see forever in your eyes
Paradise
And in your arms salvation's not so far away
It's getting closer
Closer every day
Almost paradise
We're knockin' on Heaven's door
Almost paradise
How could we ask for more
I swear that I can see forever in your eyes
Paradise
Paradise

Rotting bloom, evolutionary infertility
Spilling dead weight of the world that bleeds
Parasites swarm, eating all-absorbing
Scavenging humanity will fall
Breathe the fall and feed on dark matter
Expended love breaking combustion of the pattern
Imprisonment in a body of pain, your last hive
Obscure corners of mind that buries you alive
Cataclysm child walking in shadows
Torn with their smile, worn to their burden inside
Lethal quantum running through the veins
Doctrine of descendants in the wake
Maggots of mayhem breeding serpentine silence
Sinister dimensional turbulence
Opened the blood stained box
The great cold paradox
Look at the neglected world
A sight to behold for endless time-space
Cataclysm child wears a burden inside
A temple of needs, paradoxical work of artificial
The perfection made of scars
Exhale the dead weight in you
Raise the glass for abomination
Inhale the vague, scavengers' nation
Bleeding, feeding, this tormenting sight
Sealing covenant, death for eternal life
Feel the frost absorbing your warmth
This carnal prison burns so cold
Heed the will of the breathing paradox
Smothered beatings of the Earth black box
Spilling poisonous wine, doctrine of failed design
Obscure corners of mind, no one hears you're alive
Opened the blood stained box
