Written to music, sort-of, hence the scattered nature. Whatever came into my head at the time was written down without alteration.
Daisies in the sunset, the joker turns to you in broken chains
My eyes are tired and yours are dark
How do we find the light amongst the gravestones?
Send me back home, send you to Hell
There are moonbeams in the summer
Moonbeams in the morning
Kisses in the nightshade and the
Sleepy golden starlings say goodbye
I have the music and I plan to use it
I'll tell the people what you've done
Love and chains I can't explain
But sorrow I know well
Let's say goodbye in the morning
Let's put our pillows to rest
The early murder of a songbird
Who placed dead swans in her nest
Four in the afternoon
Beginning of December
I can't see the window
I can't see outside
What is there left?
Where did my life go?
So fast, so fleeting so slow
Covered in dewdrops and the strong summer snow
I can't think nor breathe
Living for nothing, my love
You were my distraction
I hid you away
I kept a lock of your hair
I kept you with me, everywhere
And you threw it in my face
Sent me away
The last time I saw you
You were with someone else
Wearing your red petticoat
I saw you with him
We met at the bus-stop
I asked you to stay
You said you were married
Send me away
Send me forever in a letter to Hell
The postman ignored me but I'm not surprised
I'm used to it, I put up with your lies
There's no God
I see you, there with a rope 'round your neck
A thin skeleton that wanted to leave
Could never get free,
She killed to be rid of the pain
There's no end
No pretend
I can't bend
To your will anymore
We work late at night with the birds and the bees
They come to us still and whisper 'please, please
Take us away, let us fly, let us stay'
Send me away, away
I can't breathe
Can't I sing? I can't see
There's no end can't pretend
You were my queen
Catacombs and tombstones
Grey and broken, growing old
I see children I see the dead
Where is my wedding ring?
Down by the water there's a witch
She can't see, she's a blind old voodoo woman
She said to me that I would die
But I already knew my own fate
You weren't made for this world, so I see
There's no Heaven and no Hell that would take you and me
I want guardians and hellhounds, the sea and the trees
Why can't we have both? Whisper to me please
Don't fasten my chains of love
I can't see, set me free, I forgot how to pray
I don't want your God above
I want Satan, sweet Satan, send me away
Send me away with a lock of your hair
No reassurance, no ending, no love anywhere
I can't think straight for the drugs in my brain
Sweet Satan, my guardian, please send me away
