Lyrics

Borrow my imagination for a little while.
How can I comfort you?
You say you like it this way.
Night or day - it's the same to you.
Until that day
I plant mercury globeflowers in my garden and until that night your beams make the flowers explode and spread your seeds.
Comfort? Yeah like putting plasters on a limb consumed by leprosy.
Comfort? Yeah like sticking the head in the sand.
I conjured a miserable creature for you.
A restless moonling always on the move.
It founded its own nomadic state -
Translunaria.
The moonling can never be seen from earth.
Braiding moonbeams.
How can I comfort you?
You like it this way, don't you?
Slowly revolving a white horizon round your axis.
Your magnetism is so week, you can hardly keep the ivory tower
I conjured for you.
How can I...?
You say you don't want it.
You say you don't need it.
How can I...?
You don't care at all, do you?
