lyrics

Penned in a pissoir
The pursuit will end
For a poison flower
Down rainbow’s end
And all along seven bays
With opium smiles
She’s crouched like a sphinx
On these indigo tiles
Listen for me
I said listen for me
“Is this the face
That launched a thousand ships
And burnt the topless towers of Ilium Sweet Helen
Make me immortal with a kiss...”
Lost on a trip
On the streets of Brussels
In a heliotrope haze
Where acacia blossoms
Forevermore
I saw her last
Up on Claremont Pass
She came for some more
She came for some more
Honey at the core
For a poison flower
Youth will die
Penned in a pissoir
You cry
“Do I believe in you? Do I believe in myself?”
“We once had one of those
In my father’s house
The aperture from which the sand runs Is so tiny that at first
It seems that the level
In the upper glass never changes
To our eyes it appears
That the sand runs out
Only at the end and until it does...”
