Night Fell
04:41
|
|||
A soft revival of my innocence
Awaits my coming by the cherry trees
On waves of indigo I ride to them like long ago
Night fell, and in silence I await dawn
I changed, though I never meant to move on
Among the clovers, I sought your embrace
And in your splendor, I was overcome
Oh heal me, revenant
For as you reeled, my spirit tore
Night fell, and in silence I await dawn
I changed, though I never meant to move on

June
03:51
|
|||
Like leaves dancing in the glade
You fluttered my way amidst the autumn grey
Like snow falling from on high
You tempered the night with winter sheets of white
Like rain pouring all through spring
You are watering the barren fields green
Like sun on the first of June
You unearthed my tomb with summer’s gentle croon

Upon The Clouds You Weep
05:01
|
|||
Violet eyes feigning
Your voice invokes my only sleep
Grace without glory
Upon the clouds you weep
Paled by your cruelty
Unbound to all I see
In truth, I am where I was before
The first thought of you brings a thousand more
What came over me when the fever broke
I forgot myself deep within the smoke
If I could concede to your blade of gold, to the hastening
I would run back through time to my fleeting world

Devilry
04:14
|
|||
A rusted heart beats not for love nor for anyone at all
Yet you recall the swallowtails swirling in your stomach
Devilry on the breeze, sugar in the words you speak to me
Secretly, I believe everything will bloom tonight
Lunacy as we please underneath a sky of velveteen
Suddenly I don’t see how I could grow any older now
You dwell within your apathy, caught between the lies you wove
You claim to know what’s best for me, what I truly need
Devilry on the breeze, sugar in the words you speak to me
Secretly, I believe everything will bloom tonight
Lunacy as we please underneath a sky of velveteen
Suddenly I don’t see how I could grow any older now

Already Forgotten
04:35
|
|||
Carelessly I wandered
Where the ravens prey
Drinking what they offered
Be still my enemy
There I languished absently
In your luster, in your legacy
All your fiction I believed
I should’ve known
Forever won’t take too long
Tomorrow’s almost gone
Already forgotten
Spent are the days
Of marbles and lemonade
Now comes the charade
Performed on a crumbling stage
Silk upon your shoulders
Feathers in your hands
Pleasantries and liquor
To feed your jealousy
Thus I sheltered woefully
In my haven, in my vanity
Age of envy coaxing me
I should’ve known
Forever won’t take too long
Tomorrow’s almost gone
Already forgotten
Spent are the days
Of marbles and lemonade
Now comes the charade
Good heavens, Arthur, what a marvelous display!
