Night's fallen, flesh's calling

spilling in the flood some tears of blood and agony

There on the beach lying

wasting and staining the sands of time indifferently



Stranded on the shores of life

The fish's kiss - it still remains unanswered



[Chorus]

Bathing in silence, yearning to swim

On a calm and quiet ocean

Urging to sin or to breathe with no motion

While hearing the sound of sweet violence



Torch-bearer's burned wings

firing all the arrows in a broken fantasy

Star's fallen, sand-crawling

Dropping just like jetsam from a lonely ship at sea



Stranded on the shores of life

The fish's kiss - it still remains unanswered



[Chorus]



Until the day's end's

a bitter wet bed seeking a soft place for a rest of my head

Tender the arms which embrace the brave

I am fallen asleep in a watery red.



[Chorus]
