You Hung Your Lights In The Trees/A Craftsman's Touch |
What crime is on your record? |
When did you lose your wings? |
Are your memories chequered? |
Do you still dream of having all those things? |
Having all of those things? |
I want no part of the betrayal |
If you should succeed or if you fail |
It’s you who worries me Spring withers and summer smothers |
My portrait casts its skin mile after yellow mile |
On the walls, thin layers, oily traces |
Preserved and exhibited down the stairs |
A medicine finish, a craftsman’s touch |
That’s how many came to grief |
What time is it on your planet? |
What time is it in your heart? |
In your past deeds did you plan it? |
How far are we apart? |
For those who could not flee |
Belief in a promised release |
You hung your lights in the trees |
That’s how many came to grief |
