Şarkı Sözleri

He enlists an able deck-hand to wield the drill,
a vortex in his cortex to release his will.
As spiral enters he spins out of control.
All magic circles under those eyes -
mental ventilation won't stifle their cries,
his futility belt all crowded with spies.

His one good eye now all a ghastly squint,
head held together with sorrow and spit.
So much haste, too much speed,
spasm-tongued sermon decreed;

I opened my eyes and I stared right through my photographs of you.
I opened my eyes and I choked out through my memory of faith.

... a malady on the mainline...
A man of inaction, a greyer of shades.
Prey to twisting frequencies with whom he once played.

Wild of eye and long in tooth,
lies all that are left for our seeker of truth.
A stoop-backed, sad sack, all thoughts side-tracked.
Onrush of water through compromised hull.

I opened my eyes and I stared right through my photographs of you.
I opened my eyes and I choked out through my memory of faith.

Crow's nest crowded with cackling crew,
all staring faces peering straight through.

a-raising the black sails and floating his ghost.

I opened my eyes and I stared right through my photographs of you.
I opened my eyes and I choked out through my memory of faith.

I shuttered my eyes and I stared right through my photographs of you.
I shuttered my eyes and I choked out through my memory of faith.
