One not one
One single word
Out of the cradle
You lie, sweet lies
Rattlesnake poison
And the weight that buries you
No you can't take me with you
As i cling to the anchor
And watch you drift away
I awoke under a blood red sky
It certainly won't be the first or the last time
Her promises a path of thistles And thorns
And everything slipping away
that was never ours to hold
May your lives be buckets of water spilled
On the sand and forgotten

Dusty corridors
And pictures of
dead kings, stare deep into me
And tell me the whole story
Here I thought I was dreaming
Here I thought I was mad
When I meet you tomorrow
On that sand we can
Build something real
Alas you'll awaken
Fall on your
Face face face
Well I know
There's not a perfectly balanced stone
Well I know
There's nothing in this world that is perfect
we'll watch it all crumble
We'll watch it all crumble into sand
The siren sings it's song so sing along

Rode into town on a backwards horse
Named entropy. Holding out my own grey
clouds you cast over me.
If space is divided, my soul is the severed
wind and you were the daylight
If you were the bullet I'm the firing pin
Hold hands, hold hands
Well I can't go where the shadow goes
I've retraced my footsteps
A thousand miles, a thousand miles
Where were you when the flood dried
Did you, did you pick up your bags and wander?
Open up my eyes,
I think I see it
Wretched flames, Purifying flames
As I stand one foot off the edge
with a rope around my neck you saved the day

Buried among the sacred bones
Layers of peat moss on top of the ash
There's a little seldom hidden stone
That explains everything
I've been sitting around for 50 or so years
I'm losing count, like a book up on a dusty
shelf
Waiting in anticipation for the day
That great day of reckoning and relief
We've been running around in a straight
jacket and a smile on our face
When every little thing seems to burn like salt
Rub it all round in my open wounds
I've tried this time
I've tried this time
Take hold, reckoner
The silver lining is coming
Been at war so long
