Sweet wine They won't tell you about the dark times We can stare up at the stars At the galaxies way up out of our reach Passing round a bottle Talking about nothing And laughing with the universe We are small And night time is short The grey skies always disappear And the good times always end
Sweet wine is boiled away The kick is lost And the bottle is dripped empty The moon fell Behind that hill over there And the sun is creeping up on us Hoping we won't notice For a while we don't care Our minds faded Nothing exists in that moment Until the sun is risen And the light is so bright it blinds us
Sweet wine is distilled Sweet wine rots away Worms crawl in through the cracks in the walls The barricade we built against reality crumbles And the bad times come rushing in Like a wave Devastating the small moment we made This small life we were living Under the stars and the galaxies Hidden in the middle of nowhere Unimportant and invisible
Sweet wine The bottle has shattered My blood spills down my arms Dripping tracks onto the floor Like a gingerbread trail Leading to the witches' den Where the oven heats up The blood pours But there's fight in me left As we rally our troops against the shadows Reality need no longer exist We will remain free With no weight on our shoulders Only wine in our blood
