The Lantern 가사

In the same destructive way Your broken bridge lies in the hay You cannot spell you only lean Where magic words direct the stream Underneath this buckled quilt Flowers old and precious wilt They take you to a bluster place And dance around your face Safer calendars I have seen But whoever knew what months must mean I sail the skies and fly through the sea No miner, cook or fool can die so weakly Hasty dashed in quicker clothes What if the fishes eat the loaves Backward buildings drop to dust Gutters turn to rust I stamp my feet and scare the ghost Welcome that dimension's host He flickers and snickers into his robe And skips around the globe During weeks when I was grey I posted night to greet the day I shunned the light for beams of black No sailor, ship or sea can sink on land The lantern swings until your arm hurts And all you did was signal your demise
