lyrics

Have faith for the moment and reach into your jacket's pocket to
withdraw the precious locket with the
red velvet-laced necklace
Ithaca left you so you'd keep true
and not drift off from the palms she's laid for you
Brush away the tears you splash on the glass
and know you're blades of grass on an atlas

There was once a devil on a bone-pile throne...

"Stalk the sunlight, you well-walked wolf!"
- "Assassino! The world knows no heroes!"

And in our way, an orchard of gallows swings above our heads:
The Ornamental Witness
A justice, this clitless infant found:
Reason and it's paper spouse are upside-down

...

You showed me the only well worth drinking from is one that makes life short and sweet
I stretch my arms, reaching out around me, just to lock myself in time to escape

"Death," spoke the Jury. "Nothing like the honey of the prairies in whose arms I sleep." Though I'm in the court, I'm back home, listening to the earth as it speaks:

Down in the Valley
I saw an omen
It spreads it's dragon wings
and inside, an ocean

Bring the trees and gin, alive!
Set 'em in the bar, off-by
If today, I condemn, I wanna be
Wasted or high

Light a stick of incense and then sit with Death for one last chess match
Sink, port, bow, we're almost there now
with your fingers bent back, sailing them off deck,
and the violence comes again,
the wind runs through the holes in your hands.
So it's "RUN RUN, Salem!" then sandy oils churning...

Life is such that there is no return journey

...

Listen to the earth speak sweet Karma as Ithaca swallows teeth and then tongue

Set sail
Set sail
Set sail
So set sail in the way of the wind! This tragic story never ends.
