Why should I cry for you?
Under the dog star sailOver the reefs of moonshineUnder the skies of fallNorth, north west, the stones of Faroe
Under the Arctic fireOver the seas of silenceHauling on frozen ropesFor all my days remainingBut would north be true?
All colours bleed to redAsleep on the ocean's bedDrifting in empty seasFor all my days remaining
But would north be true?Why should I?Why should I cry for you?Dark angels follow meOver a godless seaMountains of endless fallingFor all my days remaining
What would be true?
Sometimes I see your faceThe stars seem to lose their placeWhy must I think of you?Why must I?Why should I?Why should I cry for you?Why would you want me to?And what would it mean to say,That, "I loved you in my fashion"?
What would be true?Why should I?Why should I cry for you?
