Is this some kind of confession? Am I obliged to let you speak? Are you still wondering whether Our actions are ever Completely pure? How could I be sure When all thieves lose their composure When starvation os forcing its way through the trees All the way down to the beach
Mourn for me As the sounds fall asleep Smother me With your mad charity With your poisonous mercy Smother me with charity
So we seek out the lonely roads To rush towards the useless And leave this riot of blossoms To the simple minds
If you decide to accept my offer To understand this sacrifice Think of me as inanimate matter To hide me from their lier
So let me yearn for you As you have yearned for me This storm has left us stranded But there's method to this madness Torture me with their ugliness And their ugly dreams Hidden from the eyes of men
