about

Being a song about perambulations and thoughts beside a dark river.

lyrics

A roseate specter hangs out in corners,
Reveries of bliss and untainted breath,
The sand's long turned to brittle glass here
Through the furnace of this crimson death,
Brittle mirrors harken those languid faces,
Moribund sensations down an old well,
The ticking of clocks broken by despair,
The ticking of these old clocks that'll never tell,

The stars go out one by one,
No warmth inside from a long-dead sun,
The stars go out one by one,
No warmth inside from a long-dead sun,
No sun,

I follow the bank along this river,
My place to drown thoughts beneath the ice,
Free my torpid gaze towards the soothing waves,
Gently lapping, kissing, softly break the ice,
The smell of winter drawing ever nigh
Greets my anxious nose like the scent of drear,
Like a sultry scent coming from the dark,
Such a ghastly lover, such a ghastly dear,

The stars go out one by one,
No warmth inside from a long-dead sun,
The stars go out one by one,
No warmth inside from a long-dead sun,
No sun,

My blood howls and bays at a starlit altar,
Under the velvet night where frozen voices play,
Carried on the current beside jolly trash
Bled gossamer hearts, shredded. loved and flayed,

Part the waters, spill and bleed,
Open leaves to you and me,
Part the waters, spill and bleed,
Open leaves to you and me,
Part the waters, kill the need,
I'll fall asleep,

Part the waters, spill and bleed,
Open leaves to you and me,
Part the waters, spill and bleed,
Open leaves to you and me,
Part the waters, kill the need,
I'll fall asleep,
