Our cause so sweet and bitter Has lost its hard blood glitter It remains afloat on the waves When anger fills our sails Mutinous for the space of a second You prayed and feared and beckoned Now your heart is pounding away just like mine Should i accept this out of kindness? Should i reject it out of shyness? Your sleep is stabbed by dreams Just like mine Should i accept this out of kindness? Should i reject it out of shyness? Your gift so pure and sweet Unlike mine To thank you for what you've brought We lure you close enough for a sword And just for a little while I betray you without guile Your secret prayer scattering the smoke Made you squeal, made us hide the rope Now all fear, all hope is gone Like the moon and the stars and the sun
