Arienette

歌詞

The fragile keep secrets Gathered in pockets And they will sell them for nothing. A cheap watch or locket That kind of gold washes off. And the sad act like lepers, They stick to the shadows, They long to ring bells of warning To tell of their coming So that the pure can shut their doors. The angry are animals, Senseless and savage, They act without order In logical lapses, They stain their mouths with blood. So take my hand, This barren land is alive tonight. Oh, the corn has grown stalks That form a wall to hide. But the wind carries sounds That I can't see from beyond that line. Then the stalks begin to sway... Oh, stay with me, Arienette, Until the wolves are away. The wicked are vultures And they bake in the canyons, They circle in sunlight And wait for their victims To collapse and call to them. The desperate are water, They'll run down forever And soak into silence, And end up together. In a dark and distant, dark and distant place, So don't leave me here with only mirrors watching me. This house, it holds nothing but the memories, And the moon, it leaves silver but never sleep. And then the silver turns to gray... Oh stay with me, Arienette, Until the wolves are away.
