|
My only son, keep your head down. |
|
When you walk before those tragic mirrors. |
|
You won't see yourself, only your fears. |
|
As they come true, consuming you, spilling all the gold inside your head, another year is harvested. |
|
Phobos, they dare not speak his name. |
|
And the day they forget will be the day your mouth gets, |
|
Sewn up. There is no |
|
God before, his temple the night the stars his eyes. |
|
He sees you. |
|
His green glass hearts gathering dust, |
|
All the lies they told you on a shelf in every tongue and dialect. |
|
Just start at the shore, and let the waves chase you home, as they fall and as they crest, |
|
Into the black we'll all be swept. |
|
We're all actors baby, |
|
Tonight the world is your stage. |
|
Why can't you hear them calling? |
|
They're calling out your name. |
|
Hail the goer, the goer, the goer goes. |
|
Beyond the wall, beyond the wall. |
