Current song lyrics
In the gardens perched on the sky,<br />The ones where snakes sing lullabies,<br />I met a man who spoke to me,<br />A dead man hanging from a tree.<br /><br />He craned his neck and whispered this:<br />"Perfection is the great abyss.<br />Leave now lest you share my fate,<br />A ghost dangling at heaven's gate."<br /><br />Why should I fear paradise?<br />I lived free of mortal vice.<br />So I trudged on past the sycamores<br />And stood before the pearly doors.<br /><br />Through the bars I saw the fields:<br />The stars mere cogs in ox cart wheels,<br />The earth a pebble in a stream,<br />But not one human to be seen.<br /><br />Undeterred, I gripped the latch.<br />I pulled, but it came unattached.<br />Despite my rage, the gates stood firm,<br />Then grew so hot I smelled flesh burn.<br /><br />I ran back injured to the groves,<br />And washed my wounds in waterfalls.<br />As I bathed I heard the groans,<br />Of voices wrapped in funeral pall.<br /><br />Count leaves dangling from a branch,<br />Thus numbered bodies overhead:<br />Specters moaning for another chance <br />To escape the orchard of the dead.<br /><br />An empty noose caressed my neck<br />The way my first love had.<br />A soothing feeling on my neck<br />To forget the good and bad.<br />To forget the ones who hurt you,<br />To forget the ones you hurt,<br />To forget the hate all men accrue<br />When their feet still touch the dirt.
