Arienette
The fragile keep secretsGathered in pocketsAnd they will sell them for nothingA cheap watch or locketThat kind of gold washes offAnd the sad act like lepersThey stick to the shadowsThey long to ring bells of warningTo tell of their comingSo that the pure can shut their doorsThe angry are animals Senseless and savageThey act without orderIn logical lapsesThey stain their mouths with bloodSo take my handThis barren land is alive tonightOh, the corn has grown stalksThat form a wall to hideBut the wind carries soundsThat I can't see from beyond that lineThen the stalks begin to swayOh, stay with me, ArienetteUntil the wolves are awayThe wicked are vulturesAnd they bake in the canyonsThey circle in sunlightAnd wait for their victimsTo collapse and call to themThe desperate are waterThey'll run down foreverAnd soak into silenceAnd end up togetherIn a dark and distant, dark and distant placeSo don't leave me here with only mirrors watching meThis house, it holds nothing but the memoriesAnd the moon, it leaves silver but never sleepAnd then the silver turns to grayOh stay with me, ArienetteUntil the wolves are away
