In this old cozy room
Gentle bathed in blue light
You ponder on their world
In the bright Sun

What surrounds us is said
To be filthy and dead
Quite foolish
To the quite erudite one

Blue - look out the Moon!
In the shadows we dwell
Too unseen to be true

In the dead of night
The blood Moon is smiling
Join the unseen
Dance in between the shadows
Susurrating brake
Reaching for you
From the shadows

I'm the master of things
Speaking backwards, with wings that fly
Unperceived by the sneery

All you see will be said
To be just in your head
It's so simple
In the land of dreary

You close your eyes boy, and soon
You're safe in my world
We're ghosts in the Moon

In the dead of night
The blood Moon is smiling
Join the unseen
Dance in between the shadows
Susurrating brake
Reaching for you
From the shadows

In the dead of night
The blood Moon is smiling
Join the unseen
Dance in between the shadows
Susurrating brake
Reaching for you
From the shadows

You hear the call of the Moon
Oh, one more step through the gate
And they won't tread on you

In the dead of night
The blood Moon is smiling
Join the unseen
Dance in between the shadows
Susurrating brake
Reaching for you
From the shadows

In the dead of night
The blood Moon is smiling
Join the unseen
Dance in between the shadows
Susurrating brake
Reaching for you
From the shadows

The crack of thunder boding evil in the night
Raging forks impale the dark skies
That carry and rock what they're afraid to speak of
Out to choke the light
A godless name the storm bell cries

The pestering, the blight
Someone's got to bear the blame, you name the name
The wicked rule the night
Knocking up all disarray, and there is hell to pay

Fire, and yet we'll come for you again
Try to close your eyes, we'll show up anyway
Fire, you know we'll return once again
You can turn the page, the image will remain
We're in your dreams

They ride the storm that they've brewed up in secrecy
Speak in tongues, they curse and pray
Spat maledictions, left them high in ecstasy
You don't get a word they say

The poison's got to flow
You let it off, rechannelize, depressurize
The wicked seed is sown
To spawn disarray, and there is hell to pay

Fire, and yet we'll come for you again
Try to close your eyes, we'll show up anyway
Fire, you know we'll return once again
You can turn the page, the image will remain
We're in your dreams

And in the boscage staring eyes
Something hiding from the light
The wicked rule the night

Fire, by night we'll come for you again
Try to close your eyes, we'll haunt you anyway
Fire, be sure we'll return once again
You can burn the page, the image will remain
We're in your dreams

Fire!

I've been out on the waves, still far from home
Tried to affiliate, kept on sailing all alone
I'd give the best of me but all redemption I can see is a shadow
In the mist of a reverie

Never afraid
Or so we think as we pace the unknown dark
We'd navigate by the whispering wind
And the beat of a heart
And vows would never ever break
As if we'd ever know
What never ever looks like from up close

Worlds imposed and we try to act upon
Oh what have we become

Nobody there to kill the pain away
Assay to slither from the pouring rain
You never know it as you hit the trail
All in vain?
All in vain?

Oh sometimes I wish
All mentation would disappear
Feelings would fade
And so would this blazing fear
Like a grain dancing in the wind
Without steady place
Defer arrival till another day

Worlds imposed and we try to act upon
To wonder what we become

Nobody there to kill the pain away
Assay to slither from the pouring rain
You never know it as you hit the trail
All in vain?
All in vain?

I was gonna hope to choke the fire
I was gonna face up and let go
Oh, I was gonna ally with the golden guising
And by the light of dawn I'd put my brave face on

Nobody there to kill the pain away
Assay to slither from the pouring rain
You never know it as you hit the trail
All in vain?
All in vain?

You enter the play
Heeding the call
Like a baby you stain
You emit and you crawl
Rock the cradle, bound to sway

You burn up the void
Hedonic and free
Against all the odds till the odds will agree
You cry for the Moon, an easy prey
Wrap over fingers in your pie
Trying to stir you inside

When they give you hell
Will you bid farewell to yourself
And lose your mind?
Walk onto the scene
Trying to choke your only dream
Shining out the inmost light

Tailored to needs
You've got to obey
Painting horizons and skies on blockades
Affecting gravity
To the senseful you seem to be making no sense
Well, it doesn't seem senseful
Yet it feels so intense and immense
In our crazy little dream
Now who's out of whose mind?

When they give you hell
Will you bid farewell to yourself
And lose your mind?
Walk onto the scene (that's)
Trying to choke your only dream
Shining out
The inmost light

When they give you hell
Will you bid farewell?
(When they)
Give you hell
Will you bid farewell to yourself
And lose your mind?
Walk onto the scene
That's trying to choke your only dream
Shining out
The inmost light

A sweet embrace in a distant dream
Where did I take a wrong turn?
From up close to far away
A crowded room
Yet a lonely cave
Stare at those names
In chalk hearts they had scrawled
Before the rain
Shivering afraid of the rain
That might wash away
The heart that I'd paint around a name
And leave an empty spot inside my soul

And I won't contemplate it
I'd have fought the devil to be
The one that you need
Now I'm giving myself
I'm all his if he still wants me

He can take mе away
I'm misplaced among the angels
Savе me, I'm in need of you
When real life bleeds through
That frail veneer of reason
Bleeding away
Misplaced among the angels
I'm in need of you
When real life bleeds through
The dark beneath the frail veneer of reason

A lonely night in a busy place
Aren't we all reaching out through a veil
Trying to scream yet unbearably mute
Different worlds, same old Moon
We all seem to cry for in vain
In a cold world too real for us to subdue

Never been a stranger to pain
We got to restrain
Blessed is the night
Mr. Moon, if you're out there

Take me away
Misplaced among the angels
Save me, I'm in need of you
When real life bleeds through
The frail veneer of beauty
Bleeding away
Misplaced among the angels
I'm in need of you
When real life bleeds through
The dark beneath the frail veneer of beauty

A sweet embrace, a dying dream
Craving lit up by belief
On the side of angels, dead in need

Take me away
Misplaced among the angels
Save me, I'm in need of you
When real life bleeds through
The frail veneer of reason
Bleeding away
Misplaced among the angels
I'm in need of you
When real life bleeds through
The dark beneath the frail veneer of beauty

Misplaced among the angels
Misplaced among the angels
Misplaced among the angels

A stare dead ahead as he's striding
Unshod on a glittering wave
Of stardust, defying all judgement
He's gliding away, impelled to aberrate
Scornful and prying, they're not even trying
To grasp what they deign to deride
A picture that's ripped into pieces
A drifter who's leaving the light

Gazing, wondering, laughing
It fades away
And I take on the gale

I tame the storm at night
Braving wind and rain
I tame the storm at night
Carry me away

I tame the storm at night
I tame the storm
Oh

A wayward mind in concealment
A host in a clamorous crowd
Fragility poorly protected
From discountenance wondered out loud
Right on and if you can't defy it
Omit the feeling of pain
Safe in a still conversation
A child entwined with the rain

You feel no more coldness
It slowly fades away in the dark

I tame the storm at night
Braving wind and rain
I tame the storm at night
Carry me away

I tame the storm at night
Braving wind and rain (Braving wind and rain)
I tame the storm at night (Oh, let's tame the storm)
Carry me away
Oh

I glide over skies above the clouds and the rain
On memories that can't be detached from the comfort I fail to regain
The euphony breathes a wistful return of the time
God, am I crazy or you or the whole world today?

I believe where reason doesn't speak to me, yes
I believe in anywhere the wind blows

Flying away like a paper nothing
As I twist and turn, I'm light like a paper plane
Carried away like a trace of nothing
May the wind blow me its way like a paper plane

You feel like you lose mother tongue as you wait for the world
To deign you a glimpse of connection to what it used to be
Can't tell no misapprehension from wishful thinking
As you can't bring a thing into line with what you're to see

All alone
This place is dark and far from home
On your own, you're off to wherever you'll be drifting

Flying away like a paper nothing
As I twist and turn, I'm light like a paper plane

Flying away like a paper nothing
As I twist and turn, I'm light like a paper plane
Carried away like a trace of nothing
May the wind blow me its way like a paper plane

Flying away like a paper nothing
As I twist and turn, I'm light like a paper plane
Carried away like a trace of nothing

Twilight falls, ghostly the hands
That reach out for you
Through the mist of these alien lands
Swallowed away on the road to forever

Like a storm, the wraith of advance
Forced its will upon you
Sacred yesterdays, lucid and vast
For a blink of an eye, it's all coming together

Like a relic of a long bygone time
Moonflowers grow from the back of your mind
Hold on, yeah

Fire in the night
I see ghosts, specters light around me
Vivid and stark, a blaze in the dark
Fire in the night
One by one, pictures gather 'round me
Where those moonflowers used to grow
Lost no more, specters gather 'round here
Vivid and stark, a blaze in the dark
Night by night, stare into the black
Where moonflowers used to grow

As I walk through the mist
And the ruins of things that used to be
Silent remnants of magical times
A cabinet of curiosities

Old companions and past Christmas ghosts
Juvenile levity
Sacred gatherings, pictures of days
Swallowed away on the road to forever

A covert society buried in time
Once bent on survival
Now kicked out of line
Oh, I hold on

A fire in the night
I see ghosts, specters light around me
Vivid and stark, a blaze in the dark
Fire in the night
One by one, pictures gather 'round me
Where those moonflowers used to grow
Lost no more, specters gather 'round here
Vivid and stark, a blaze in the dark
Night by night, stare into the black
Where moonflowers used to grow

And quite suddenly
Just as if somebody slammed the door
Halcyon days buried in halcyon lore
As silence prevails
Fragments come passing me by
Slipping right through
A crevice in time, oh

Fire in the night
I see ghosts, specters light around me
Vivid and stark, a blaze in the dark
Fire in the night
One by one, pictures gather 'round me
Where those moonflowers used to grow
Lost no more, specters gather 'round here
Vivid and stark, a blaze in the dark
Night by night, stare into the black
Where moonflowers used to grow

You stumble against a door you've never seen was here
And somewhere deep inside, you know you're in for something
Now everything you dread is gonna disappear
You're losing track of time

You've got to go in, you gotta look up
You're ready and intent to chase the dark
You're gonna set out
You're shooting for the Moon into the night

Quaint, delightful and divine
There's no making sense of it at all
As we sail off to the other side of now
Need no reason, need no rhyme
If you don't feel it now, you won't at all
In their shiny slick indifference
Set all sail, we're out of here, the devil be our guide

You stand upon the ocean 'neath a mystic sky
Does anybody really mourn the day as it drowns? Well
The Moon's about to craze the bonafide, all rhyme
And reason he'll rescind

You've got go on, you gotta get up
You gotta be intent to hunt the snark
You're gonna set out
You sail on by the Moon and ain't it bizarre
How breaking the mould will never get old?
Navigating by the heart unlike what you been told
You're gonna be free
You're gonna set a spectral night ablaze

Quaint, delightful and divine
There's no making sense of it at all
As we sail off to the other side of now
Need no reason, need no rhyme
If you don't feel it now, you won't at all
In this grimy sick insistence
Set all sail, we're out of here, the devil be our guide

They feed you dreams
Make you feel alone so you can dream of home
Warmth turned to heat
They will melt you down
Drip into the mould

You're shaken awake from what wasn't a dream
You know that we are real as we can make you scream
You can be free
You're gonna set the spectral night ablaze

Quaint, delightful and divine
There's no making sense of it at all
As we sail off to the other side of now
Need no reason, need no rhyme
If you don't feel it now, you won't at all
In their tiney-dique remonstrance
Set all sail, we're out of here, the devil be our guide

It's come again, and won't reveal its name
While it paints the world in shadow
You try to run but you can't get away
Your body's aching - you can't move

Eyes, incisive stare
Feel them everywhere
Raining darkness on you
Feel it by your side
Feel it crawl into your mind
You're dancing to the sound of

Heroes and tightropes and fire
Don't count the scars just let them
Light up the night sky
Hero! And no one shall see
How it grows from the scars

Wailing beauty, ecstasizing poetry
From the well of harmony — ripped apart
Broken dreams, false promises we felt were made
As we set out on a journey fated from the start
Or did we just take some wrong bloody turn
On a devious road
Drawn to the song (of)

Heroes and tightropes and fire
Don't count the scars
Just make them shine in the night sky
Heroes and no one shall see
How it grows from the scars

It's here again but we must not be afraid
Make it shed exhilaration
We pray tomorrow's rain will wash the stains away
While deep inside we know that something will remain

Eyes incisive stare
Feel them everywhere
Constant dripping wears the stone
Oh
Shadow by your side
Shadows poured into your mind
As you stumble towards the sound

Of heroes and tightropes and fire
Don't count the scars
Just make them shine in the night sky
Heroes and all they will see
How it's grown over scars

Heroes and tightropes and fire
Don't count the scars
Just make them shine in the night sky
Heroes no one shall see
How it grows from the scars

Wandering the low lands and high plains
Been crossing the mountains
Sailing the sea
Anxiety-free

Ah, been craving for rain in the desert
Saw bleak nights devour
The day's blazing heat, oh

A light burning out
Tied to the canon's apron
Hie in obedience to the scantiness of time
Meant to astound
Entangled in adornment
An ornament sublime

Dreams allayed
No weakness gets betrayed

Right on
Swaying to the sacred fanfares
Don't you stop to run
From paradise to despair
Yeah, strident voices
Now why don't you?
Why do you slow down? Right on!
Don't speak, don't wonder!
That way! This way! Don't walk astray!
Welcome to the arabesque

Oh
Oh

Hm, you beat up against the wind and the flow
Concealing your tears
With the sweat from your brow
No one see's them, they're next to you
Deride them, despite they're the faithful
The only, the true, oh

Got a navigation map and aspiration
If only that good old chart
Would show the seas you gonna sail
Run up and down
Until you stand to reason
Faithfully you break

Dreams aligned
Stalwartly confined

Right on
Swaying to the sacred fanfares
Don't you stop to run
To the promised land in despair
Voices screaming
Now why don't you?
Why do you slow down?
Right on! Don't speak, don't wonder!
That way! This way! Don't walk astray!
Welcome to the arabesque

Toss and turn all night
Got to get it right
Is it just a dream
Or runaway fantasy?
Reverie out of kilter?
Got to carry on
Go on, play along
Don't you let them down
As they help you drown
Your feelings in a philtre

I want the turmoil to go away
And slowly I'd trouble no more
Like a grain the wild wind blows away
From a whispering, blistering shore
If you'd look back at the shore through my eyes
Having sailed just a mile in my shell
Hold to think and maybe feel what it's like
At the deep end of slightly unwell

Got to carry on
Must be going strong
Wipe away the tears
Put your vizard on
Welcome to the creep show
Welcome to the freakshow!

And I'm dreaming of mother love
And colouring outside the lines like a child
Beyond growing up
And the pain that goes along with it
To escape these confines

Ooooh, no breath for pretence
Refuse to make sense

Right on
Swaying to the sacred fanfares
Don't you stop to run
From paradise to despair
Searing voices
Now why don't you?
Why do you slow down?
Right on! Don't speak, don't wonder!
That way, this way, don't walk astray
Welcome to the arabesque

Right on
Swaying to the sacred fanfares
Don't you stop to run
Right on, right on
Through the pain and the fire
Through the wind and the rain
Walking a long way from home
Right on
