|
Waking up, regreting courses, memories of an upright world |
|
And the splinters become khat-shrubs, easy meed, shapeless and swirled |
|
And the days are spritting fires, beacons for abanoned aims |
|
And the fever is rising higher, is burning faces and burning names |
|
Keep me and hold me, solve me from the glow |
|
Hold me and keep me, take away the woe... |
|
And I'm creeping through the oceans, empty nests in place of eyes |
|
In my veins the hydra is barkling, thirsty for a carthatic lyse |
|
And the clouds are spritting malice, cruelties die of broken hearts |
|
A sigh is leaving the pleasure palace, down to where the circle starts.... |
|
Keep me and hold me, solve me from the truth |
|
Hold me and keep me, take away the ruth... |
|
Through the veils of world and heaven's bend |
|
Lead me to the water's end |
|
And through days of ghost and their mirrored land |
|
Lead me to the water's end |
|
And through marble woods, on ships of sand |
|
Lead me to the water's end |
|
And through all the past, held by your hand |
|
Lead me to the water's end |
|
Water's end... |
