The Pretty Things - Alexander

Eastern shores, they seemed so full of promise

Minarets they lacerate the skyline

Opposing seas will drift into the harbour

Girls, they die with screams of Alexander

You'll only kneel at the Fire God

You'll only kneel at the Fire God

You'll only kneel at the...

Balthazar consults his book of numbers

Buildings jangle with the children's laughter

Mothers, they gather eyes of distant features

A woman's face dissolves, I hear her screetches.

You'll only kneel at the Fire God

You'll only kneel at the Fire God

Poet dies, stabbed with the knife of words

Young girl marries with bouquet of letters

One life explodes and slides into the sea

The city lies buried beneath the curses

You'll only kneel at the Fire God

You'll only kneel at the Fire God

You'll only kneel at the Fire God
