Must Be a Dream
05:40
|
|||
|
A boiling sea
A bird in flight
A whale beset by flies
A hungry dog
Marauds the beach
Limping cold and blind
You just can't place
The blurry face
A woman wearing blue
A painting dripping
Off the wall
A melting bride and groom
There's something black and blue just out of hand
You're running but you're sinking in the sand
It's gaining on you, your legs are stiff as death
You feel it's stinking breath upon your neck
This must be a dream
Oh this must be a dream
Tell me it's a fleeting thing
Say this isn't happening
This must be a dream
A rotting man with hollow eyes
hobbling across the beach
Shambling like an amputee
Or prehistoric beast
A million miles a million more
Off beyond the sea
Forgotten now forever, there
the void beyond the dream
Clouds are swelling darkness far away
Spreading like some pestilent decay
The wind is whirling sand into your eyes
A maelstrom is pulling you inside
This must be a dream
Oh this must be a dream
Tell me it's a fleeting thing
Say this isn't happening
This must be a dream

Song of the Mother

I never meant to make you cry
Cross my heart and hope to die
But now we’re here, this wretched place
Where land evades all time and space
And now I lay thee down to sleep
No dreams to come, no counting sheep
You’ll soon depart this bivouac
And swim the silent seas of black
I’ve lost the fight, the will to carry on
Because I’m already gone
I never thought the trip would be so long
Because I’m already gone

Gone to the Dogs
04:25
|

|
Through corridors
With bloody floors comes a
light from far away
Amidst the fog
awaits a dog
Watching through the gray
I got nothin left to lose
I'm scared to see it through
There's shadows floating all around this room
Insatiable these thirsty thoughts
The she loves me's and she loves me nots
The last thing that I'd ever wanna see
I wish I will I wish I might
I wish I'd slip away tonight
All that was will never cease to be
The dog takes flight
Towards the light
His form is growing small
I'll chase him down
The measly hound
But my legs won't move at all
There's a demon on my chest
Sucking out my breath
Just let me see you before the bitter end
Let me see you again
Insatiable these thirsty thoughts
The she loves me's and she loves me nots
The last thing that I'd ever wanna see
I wish I will I wish I might
I wish I'd slip away tonight
All that was will never cease to be

Credits Roll
03:43

Tell me there's another part
These credits tear apart my heart
They're walking back to all their cars
This can't be how it ends
There's shadows moving up the wall
One shaped the way I last recall
You looked when I in love did fall
This can't be how it ends
Just let it happen
Just let it happen
Just let me hoooold you one last time
Before you're lost to ocean brine
And the moon and stars forget to shine
This can't be how it ends
I saw your feet in striped socks
Curling underneath the spot
The house had claimed its wicked plot
This can't be how it ends
The twister's here, the cellar door
A picture of you on the floor
Up above the heavens roar
This can't be how it ends
Could you visit as a ghost
In fevered dreams I'll diagnose
It's that crooked smile I'll miss the most
This can't be how it ends
I'm begging you, just stay with me
Don't play along with this cosmic scheme
You disappeared so beautifully
This can't be how it ends
Lying dying hand in hand
Your dusty portrait on our nightstand
What god could rob me from this plan?
This can't be how it ends

The Darkening
22:00
|
|||
|
The darkening
The clouds are swelling on the sea
Where the whitecaps roll and underneath abyss and cold
A creature there
Falling slowly through the deep
Awaits the gnashing jaws, the mandibles and scuttling claws
I never could surrender to the void
But comatose my struggles maladroit
I've made my peace
And now I'm finally free
