Fate held the opposite to all of his finest decisions One storm, and the rush of it Cracked his ship and he felt himself sinking Sharp, bright, flashes of light and the roar of the waves overhead "It’s alright" a voice in the night It said, "follow me, follow me, follow me Follow away, no need to go back, no need to go back now Away, no need to go back, no need to go back now "
Up where the sun shone his love disbelieving Shed tears in the ocean while rowing and grieving "You can't just have vanished, you were so close to shore Was there a siren in the waves that tore you from home Wish you could come back, wish you would come back now Wish you could come back, wish you would come back now"
"What happened" he said, "have I collided with stars I feel such confusion, don't know where we are And what are those strange jewels that fall from above They fill me with longing like the shadow of love I need to go back, I need to go back now I need to go back, I need to go back now"
"Hush now my darling I’ve built you a garden Relax and enjoy it, you are bound here by nothing Let my necklace entice you, pearls round a silk strand It cuts straight through their centre like darkness through man
Black, white everything is alright You've been caught in a grand twist of fate Black, white everything is alright Just call me your favorite mistake
Black, white Black, white Black, white Black, white
