Stagnation

Here today the red sky tells its tale
But the only listening eyes are mine
There is peace amongst the hills
And the night will cover all my pride
Blessed are they who smile from bodies free
Seems to me like any other crowd
Who are waiting to be saved

Wait, there still is time for washing in the pool
Wash away the past
Moon, my long lost friend is smiling from above
Smiling at my tears
Come, we'll walk the path that takes us to my home
Keep outside the night
The ice-cold knife has come to decorate the dead
Somehow

And each will find a home
And there will still be time for loving my friend
You are there

And will I wait forever beside the silent mirror
And fish for bitter minnows
Amongst the weeds and slimy waters

I, I, I, I, I
I, I, I, I, I, said I wanna sit down
I, I, I, I, I
I, I, I, I, I, said I wanna sit down
I want a drink, I want a drink

To take all the dust and the dirt from my throat
I want a drink, I want a drink
To wash out the filth that is deep in my guts
I want a drink

Then let us drink
Then let us smile
Then let us go
