AT DAWN THEY SLEEP LYRICS
"Lust" (1998 Demo)
1. Birdsong
2. After the Stripshow
3. Ilúvatar
4. Bumblebee Hair
1. Birdsong
Vivid colours and just like others, yet no songs of its kind
The songless bird, flying without distinct destination
Just looking for something... "I want to sing!"
A cry of frustration - that's no song, yet it's all, I'm afraid
Carry on! You'll find it someday - the endless inspiration
Fly higher, follow your kind, they say
"It's not what I want!"
A tearless tragedy - that's what you want?
"Aye, if it be so, then yes. But I'll fly further"
From the dawn of your time you have flied but never sung
Follow us while you can. The dusk draws nearer every day
What if it befalls on us and you still can't sing?
"Then I'll fly by night!" the stubborn one cried and flied on
You'll just get lost! Come back you fool! It hurts us to see you grieve
But the songless bird flew and flew still further...
Vivid colours and just like others, yet no songs of its kind
The songless bird, still flying without destination
Just looking for something... "I want to sing!"
2. After the Stripshow
I am the serpent of evening wounds
I live for blood, I swim in the blood
The servant
Forever, living blind
I have seen the horse's eyes and beneath
Been near the beautiness, or have I?
The innocent
I am the memory of the centuries
Suck my powers into your self, seek my jewelry, bite me endlessly
Horror is the space where you wander, hear my words, as I sacrifice my self
Too long I have been in this valley, I know every slope it has
Now it's my time to dive to the river, I need salvation and reincarnation
"Where is the new contest, lead me there, I promise that this time I won't go straight to the finals"
Naked people of time, have a long life
Be happy, and write a book when you die
But be sure, that the chapter 13 does exist
Because without it, you can't exit
It doesn't have to be long
A short will do fine
Just write it with blood
And serpent's tongue
"I walked to there, where the earth ended, and found out, that we are limitless, chained to ground, free, slaves and beautiful at the same time"
3. Ilúvatar
Alone in infinity was the One
The keeper of wisdom
Ilúvatar
Hear His children's voice
Forever burning fire
He who made the holy ones
Created the World in His thoughts
His song is sung forever
Eternal is His Flame
4. Bumblebee Hair
Hey you girl, why don't you look to my face
Why don't you please fly, fly to my world
The unnegative sign, on your lips
Is something I want to feel, and I will be healed
Take my hand, and guide me to your nest
Let me drink your honey, show me the test
You are the queen, and I'm your soldier
That's all I will be, I can't stand no longer
But my mouth is closed, lips tied together
Your bumblebee hair, flying in the air
This won't last forever
You know, that insects don't live too long
Not for forever
I haven't seen it all
Now all that has come to reality
New emotions, the best quality
But still I'm so sad, because after all
Why can't the bees live forever?
