Muttering at the end of the hall When the scythe lays reflecting a white moon "Goodnight Irene," whispers a prayer No one that lives present has a say here Each second that passes Means a step toward the gate Though fate touches some There are many left behind Licking the cerberuses dried tongue Morning, night Both hold the same grudge A delirium of pressing proportions That will turn any master work Into a child's glittery firework Hear the wind pass through Dead children's waving hair All I see are the burning grey trees And a place that once was alive But now is filled with every kind of disease Hold the the throat of the man that has taken Your love your treasure your dream under dreams All these sheets of cloth cannot protect you The bed is burning beneath you And as the church bells ring for their final time God is not there to show you some kind of sign Though the mind seems insane The mind is also sane Each drop of water to waver the balance That falls from a sky full of grace Shows sweet reseliance of the minds of us Sweet brown whiskey water That tastes of the settng sun Each drip of the drop does not bother You act as if a long lost brother

Gaze Out the Window
Muttering at the end of the hall When the scythe lays reflecting a white moon "Goodnight Irene," whispers a prayer No one that lives present has a say here Each second that passes Means a step toward the gate Though fate touches some There are many left behind Licking the cerberuses dried tongue Morning, night Both hold the same grudge A delirium of pressing proportions That will turn any master work Into a child's glittery firework Hear the wind pass through Dead children's waving hair All I see are the burning grey trees And a place that once was alive But now is filled with every kind of disease Hold the the throat of the man that has taken Your love your treasure your dream under dreams All these sheets of cloth cannot protect you The bed is burning beneath you And as the church bells ring for their final time God is not there to show you some kind of sign Though the mind seems insane The mind is also sane Each drop of water to waver the balance That falls from a sky full of grace Shows sweet reseliance of the minds of us Sweet brown whiskey water That tastes of the settng sun Each drip of the drop does not bother You act as if a long lost brother
