Ghosts & Typhoons

And now she's born and I feel the same

Lovers give and lovers take

And now you're worn and I feel detained

Welcome my love, come and pace the cage

It's the dark and cold smack

It's the aerials in the dream

And if I could go back

It's the thunder I'd conceal

Now the burials and the lunatics

And the kamikaze vessels to the bursting blood, brutality

Pull the cannonade, pull the winds away

It's the halcyon gaze, it's the drama in the alchemy

And take, destroy

You tear a breath, chain my head to the darkest deeds

Emotionless along the air we climb

And the stars cease-fire under willows

And there's murder to come and typhoons to tame

It's the grace never named

And now a war and I feel no restraint

Lovers guilt and lovers shame

You're the ball and I'll be the chain

Come in my love, come and bait the rage

And it haunts but we keep it

Prepare to hold this love alone

And it hurts but you need it

Prepare to hold this love

It's immaculate birth, it's a terror till the eyes turn away

It's a flash and a blur, it's the sober in the cold light of day

Now darling come back, there's something I concealed

I concealed, I concealed, my love

And it haunts but we keep it

Prepare to hold this love alone

And it hurts but you need it

Prepare to hold this love

Now you could be the fire or you could be the war

Now I could leave in silence, but I stood here till dawn

If I could leave you child, if I could leave, I'd go

Take control my love

Shake the souls above

Now there's action my love, no distress, just some gentle relief

Conceits, pride, it's a spear to the mind

No compassion my love, no caress, just a mute jealousy

Conceits, pride, it's a fear to deny

And it haunts but we keep it

Prepare to hold this love alone

And it hurts but you need it

Prepare to hold this love

Now silence gone

A coma sent to churn and raids to kill
