You can only keep me out for so long For only I can hear your secret siren's song The drought will wash away this life In the buried moon, I will have my wife For the lies can only dream of better truth I cannot help myself from the days of my youth I will tear through the time it took to come From the years I stood silent and dumb Do you know how many tears I cried for this How I've longed to feel the sweet sacred bliss Upon the altar, I will beg the moon to shine For the fields to flow with pomegranate wine I cannot bear the distance and the cost For I can only remember what I've lost To turn this death by the longest path To burn my troubles in sacred ash.
