Look upon the water
Gaze upon the waves
Is it true love, true admiration or just a phase
And the fleeting passions, pleating fashions
Beating hearts and heating visions
Tell the tale of greater failure
Follow her but never trail her
Tried and sentenced without penance
Twisted tales of twisted lenience
Left to mourn with others scorning
Crusted scales of trailing followers
The high cliff walls have filed needles
Sawing slowly through the sea
Roaring spray can’t calm your worries
It only hides the you in me
You try to hide the feelings
The truth you will not hear
When you blank your mind and blank your longing
Is it out of fear?
And the cries are soaring, skies out pouring
Acid teardrops gently boring
Knowledge into blood caked sinners
Know the curse and find the winners
Gather round and hear their chanting
Piercing calls that catch me calling
Pull me in the moonlight swallowing
Black of night come soothe my soul
I can cry out in fright and you'll never know
I can lift you on my shoulders and tell you of my praise
But these lies are so misleading
And these eyes are always glazed
Angels blood feed my open mind
Cover up my ears and make my eyes go blind
Like the roaring of my conscience
The pouring of the rain
I can spill my blood on anything yet never feel the pain
When vultures want to pick my remnants
Up I soar, on the song of the siren
And I want to know, and I want to go
