|
I whisper the tongue like an old friend |
|
I cherish my time here alone |
|
I wait in the eyes of the passing nights, |
|
To help me laugh brushfires again |
|
By the swallows sleeve, i'm a new hand |
|
Cutting out the shapes that burn me |
|
I can touch the mouths of these child gods |
|
And these true minds that hurt man |
|
And the will will go up |
|
To the crashing sails |
|
And the crushing wails |
|
Of my old pan |
|
This wind screams while i'm asleep |
|
And dreams that these white eyes |
|
Will smile again |
|
And the will will go up |
|
To the crashing sails |
|
And the crushing wails |
|
Of my old pan |
|
This wind screams while i'm asleep |
|
And dreams that these white eyes |
|
Will smile again |
|
I take to the road like an old man |
|
I cherish my time here alone |
|
I process the lines of the passing lights |
|
Losing myself, i change my plans |
|
By the western walls, i'm a cursed hand |
|
By the eastern seas, i'm hardly wrong |
|
I can swing myself down from these trees |
|
When i crave a glimpse of weary sands |
|
I whisper the tongue like an old friend |
|
I cherish my time here alone |
|
I swing myself down from these trees |
|
To help me laugh brushfires again |
