Roses, take your cover
Wild beauty travels south;
Truth will out but always speaks
From both sides of her mouth.
She's a stone in water,
She's a rising bell
The invention of another,
I make no assumptions what she'll tell.
For now, the word is moving through, sliding in beside of you;
You disappear - the both, you do:
One into the other
The jailer's singing down the halls his lonesome song of love;
Tapping like a miner with his keys on pipes above.
A lantern revolution,
We're bright without a line
But I make no assumptions now just what my light will find
For now, the dark is moving through, sliding in beside of you;
You disappear -the both, you do:
One into the other
The dead will close their bottle eyes of their own stubborn accord,
Escaping by the roof the darkest pleasures of the lord.
I pay my debt to mercy
With all of it come my way
I make no assumptions now what more I'm due today
For now, time is moving through, sliding in beside of you;
You disappear -the both, you do: one into the other
