lyrics

I've got stitches in my skin
To heal the wounds left by the explosives
That I have found upon her lips
Cherry drops of dynamite
And her tears in diamonds
Under the silken armour
In the thick stream of this darkened street
Between mannequins and masks impaled on the stilts

And now, when it is dawn - I spread my arms
Burnt upon the wind like a homeless phantom
Weaved into this cold without pausing for a single breath
I wait for her - patient, unbroken

Like a burning throat, like a broken branch
My tired legs are screaming out in pain
Myself - an idiot's dream, skin furrowed by the knife
Myself - the voice of a madman thrown upon the wind
