lyrics

Tales from the Underworld

When the seed of all that you say that I don’t understand
Is plunged deep in the soil of my head
Through procedure, so alienly humane,
And it it’s watered by the brine of my despair, to what other end,
Than for it to root, flower, blossom and shade
The petty remnants of the sun that was my mind?

And it grows like weed in the garden of my soul,
And I don’t know what venomous fruit I have brought,
And it blossoms to filth and ripens to poison
And I’m just amazed at so different a taste
Is this love – or waste?

When the fear of all you could be comes dragging you down
Arresting both your life and mine,
Through conceptions, entirely misaligned;
And you stand firm in chaos and debris, telling me: all is sound,
When all is flight wherever you turn
In the great phantom chase of your madness.

And it grows like weed in the garden of your soul
But still you hold on to the spectre of control,
And it blossoms to filth and ripens to poison
And you’re too exhausted from running away,
Where’s your love gone astray?

Will you ever see the end of the road? I don’t know.
Will I be there waiting for you? I don’t know.
Will our lives ever entwine? Will our love ever shine?
Will my heart mend in time?
I don’t know.

But then I saw it, and saw it again,
Or else I would not have believed.
I still hear you talk of love, dreams and plans,
But then you were free?
I guess I need to see a thousand times
Before I finally know inside.
Guess I need to feel a million times
Before I accept you’d let me die.

And will you ever see the end of the road? I don’t know.
Will I be there waiting for you? Sad but true, I don’t know.
Will our fates ever entwine? Will our love ever shine?
Will my heart mend in time?
I don’t know.
