The sky is red
Clouds are grey
And copper moon
One day I'll tell you
The threats are veiled
Snowblind at first
Unfurl the sails
For heavens blue or dark uncertain waters
Gone
Now carry on
Through violent seasons
I call you mother, mother, mother
In vain
Absent chain
The twilight's bleeding
And the playing board has two unbalanced pieces
No word is said
Castle grey and sunday soon
One day I'll kill you
The raining sheets batter the ground
Unroll the streets
And walk along
On high uncertain wires
Gone
Now carry on
Through seasick seasons
I'm crawling mother, mother, mother
In vain
Absent frame
The twilight's kneeling
And the chessboard still has two unbalanced pieces
Gone
Now carry on
Through violent seasons
I call you mother, mother, mother
In vain
Absent chain
The twilight's bleeding
And the playing board has two unbalanced pieces
Now carry on
Through seasick seasons
I'm crawling mother, mother, mother
In vain
Absent frame
The twilight's kneeling
And the chessboard still has two unbalanced pieces
