|
The bells ring out above my room |
|
And announcement of our loss |
|
And in the act three men decide |
|
And indefinite epilogue. |
|
My letters have all gone |
|
A journey that's unsure |
|
A message that was rich |
|
A hand that was poor. |
|
Oh have me breath and let me go |
|
Cause i don't want you to know |
|
Cause i don't want you to know. |
|
Oh i don't want you, want you, want you. |
|
My own description may have failed |
|
Torn from pictures that were saved |
|
Along with images from words |
|
That were saved and not erased |
|
The shelves arranged above my head |
|
A memory of my fears |
|
Blankets hold the smell of life |
|
And soak the many years. |
|
Oh have me breath and let me go |
|
Cause i don't want you to know |
|
Cause i don't want you to know. |
|
Oh i don't want you, want you, want you. |
|
Oh missionary are you here. |
|
Sun doesn't burn when the water comes |
|
But water doesn't come like the english rain |
|
They bury their heads for self defence |
|
A marked improvement through diligence |
|
We are alone against our sins |
|
Alone against our sins |
|
Alone against our sins. |
|
Vacant rooms that are full of men |
|
That sit on the stools awaiting time |
|
Discussion leads to little sense |
|
They bury their heads for self defence |
|
We are alone against our sins |
|
Alone against our sins |
|
Alone against our sins. |
