lyrics

Unnoticed
under tables
a long, long time
barriers
revelations
solid in before your eyes
when it goes
nebulous goes
no surprise

It all seems holy,
fragile and thin
then apotheosis
and the image burns in

space collapses
world lays down
time slips its chain
bodies and asphalt
wheels and fire
enigmas remain
phantoms in the dreaming
electric in the blood
heaven and rain
invitations
revelations
stars the same

It all seems holy,
fragile and thin
then apotheosis
and the image burns in
Take it all to the mountain
give it to the wind
the last flare of sunset
and the image burns in

Sugared nights
saline days
Advent calendar doors
endless and inane
magic or mundane
this elevator stops at every floor
then, hardly noticed
Under starships
a short, short time

It all seems holy,
fragile and thin
then apotheosis
and the image burns in
Take it all to the mountain
give it to the wind
the last flare of sunset
and the image burns in
