I Broke The Vein

I broke the vein

With a needle so long and sharp I know the way

Down into the dark

A night bird sings

I didn’t hear a thing and I broke the vein

I took the train

From Berlin to the sea I took the train

To harbors such as these

The engine steams

I’m trimming up my wings and I took the train

And stars will shine and the moon will light my way

And stars will shine and the moon will light my way

I cast away

The winters blister cold

My hands are bound in shackles made of gold

Ships going down

The captain calls to me, I cast away

And stars will shine and the moon will light my way

And stars will shine and the moon will light my way

And stars will shine and the moon will light my way

And stars will shine and the moon will light my way

March, your little feet

The soldiers in the sand

Beat your drum so loud and wave your golden flag

Let the trumpets play by God’s own wind and hand

Feel the fire come down upon the holy land

I broke the vein

With a needle so long and sharp I know the way

Down into the dark, a night bird sings

I didn’t hear a thing and I broke the vein
