Sirenhorses

You know I’ll never see that wave
You’ll know it when you see the rocking cradle shattered into million pieces of this dust
You know it’s never been the same

I can see the silhouettes
Shapes of horses, shapes of men
They cannot comprehend
What is happening (to)

…All the people here with me.
No matter what they see or what they hear
Born from perfection, free of flaws
Watch them drown in this sea of o-old go-go-gold.

You know I’ll never be that way
The world they’re in is never safe and I can’t do it all alone
The diamond dust is on its way

Underneath the frozen ground
I can see the sirens drown
They’re waving at me still
Every muscle, every fin
Of theirs is burning  up
Feel the silence in their moans

Now when I see    their empty gaze
I know when I’ve got to   turn my head
And if they say “it’s all ok”
I’ve got my melancholy phase that comes like rain
Washes up all the inner drain
Takes me ‘way from the delicate
It comes and goes
It stays the same and drives me to…

An empty lane
(…All the people here with me.)
A dirty street
(No matter what they see or what they hear)
An empty Maine
(Born from perfection, free of flaws)
A dirty shame
(Watch them drown in this sea of o-old)
An empty name, an empty name
(go-go-gold)
