She takes a shard from the ancient book
And holds it to the light for me to see
I'm on the floor and I can't believe
The effect her thoughts have had on me
I'd given up on the old "first sight"
I've been numbed into not feeling
I've seen a crack in the walls around
This space I've been concealing
Where passion is spread across the sky
Above the drone of mortals, it's you and IGather our fuel from the spoken tongue
Dancing on the waves of the Cerebral Song
She takes my mind to another place
Where I can feel and taste my surroundings
Like something new and clean
Eyes wide to all that time brings
I will show you fear in a hand of dust""
Clothed in robes of blood and gold"
I will show you tears of sensation's trust
Serve the plate of the divine untold
Where passion is spread across the sky
Above the drone of mortals, it's you and IGather our fuel from the spoken tongue
Dancing on the waves of the Cerebral Song
It's in the words of Blake or St Paul
Or in the siren's call of "winterness"
And now I choke on these dreams that thwart
The essence of a whole forsaken bliss
I've seen a peace in the hollow light
No rustling leaves to chant the name
But the Spirit still stalks the night
And envelops the cold within the pain
Where passion is spread across the sky
Above the drone of mortals, it's you and IGather our fuel from the spoken tongue
Dancing on the waves of the Cerebral Song
