[Lyric] Rhumba (Obelisks)

Buried beneath the ash of a millennia
≈ 1000 Carcaonned gods
inflict a trauma
Abattoir the empire
lay me gently
lay me gently down

We overship the entropy of our design
slip off this suit of ours the
serpent skin of life
In time the wounds of our life
turn to statues
the instant lives

Sit on my chest a while
my little golem
trail paper through the city streets
& in my bedroom
I'm just a chalk outline
nothing but bones now
whisper the torture
now the shadows and
I'm coming home
Buried beneath the ash of a millennia
≈ 1000 Crcssonned gods
inflict a trauma
Abattoir the empire
lay me gently down

A thousand years ago
the sun was a strong moon
Loneliness is just like a silent dream
Young vögel
We can but spectate on ruin
xtension we'll never know

lay me down
lay me down
lay me down
lay me down
oh

& love is not enough
to pull our bodies
from our soul tonight
& love is not enough
we turn our backs to the Riverside
