Rumours of the heavenly seed Sprawling forth amidst the seas In the bloom of her virginity Rose beyond belief, Psyche The alter lays bare blood stained shrines Once glistening grows full of disquiet We forged the frontier spring thaw at our sides Man, we bought the lot, Psyche Black death at our heels we slept for days In love the distance an endless wake Towing behind our weathered braid Rudder and sail bend, Psyche Adorned in lamentations those tears, those tears The storm clears, Psyche, your fears what fears Silence in our deep sleep of chasity We're in the doldrums, Psyche ♪ Sailing, sailing under a bad star Who are we, who are we in this light? ♪ Naught imaginable was missing The outcome was unordained The voices you hear are your handmaids Performing unseen for you, Psyche
Reckless lamps stealing the night conspire Resume wandering the idle oceans to inspire A rare reflection, there are no weddings We quit the sea, Psyche
When they observe how you traced the Earth blessed Exhausted by toil assuaged of rest Where does my Lord dwell guess Shipwrecked we attest to your journey, Psyche ♪ Sailing, sailing under a bad star
Who are we, who are we in this light? ♪ Sailing, sailing under a bad star Who are we, who are we in this light? ♪ Do lovers under the same roof see the same dawn? I cannot feel past the great prison Small spaces holding us close Keep piercing my heart, won't you? Birds and beasts roar above the heavenly citizens Cowards we sink like sea lions fluid once more Cresting the waves, dancing in the living soup like a whore Torn asunder, we cannot face the horizon And yet we must And yet we must War pauses, and we turn to dust ♪ War pauses, and we turn to dust ♪ War pauses, and we turn to dust ♪ War pauses
