Shriekback

Shriekback - Faded Flowers (Oil And Gold) lyrics

rate me

This is the sound of poisons<br />

the sickness no one knows<br />

No one is crying for us this time<br />

Our shapes are blurring under miracles of snow<br />

Weave a circle round him three times<br />

You have to plan your moves at these times<br />

Our hearts are breaking<br />

One more song to go<br />

<br />

Chorus<br />

These eyes are blind<br />

This is a pure thing<br />

These hands I kiss<br />

Tragic as anything<br />

These eyes are blind<br />

This is a pure thing<br />

All splash and hiss<br />

Beyond my measuring<br />

<br />

Only the anacrucis<br />

the main event remains<br />

Shameful and naked, out there in the<br />

great cold outdoors<br />

We have to learn these things again<br />

Bathe in this incandescent glow<br />

the leap to something I don't know<br />

There is no doubt upon us when<br />

the greasy men come back again<br />

<br />

Chorus<br />

These eyes are blind<br />

This is a pure thing<br />

These hands I kiss<br />

Tragic as anything<br />

These eyes are blind<br />

This is a pure thing<br />

All splash and hiss<br />

Beyond my measuring<br />

These faded flowers<br />

Precious as memory<br />

A veil of cloud<br />

Correct as energy<br />

We had some good machines<br />

But they don't work no more<br />

I loved you once<br />

Don't love you anymore
