Paroles The Hallucinator de Alasdair Roberts

Textes et Paroles de The Hallucinator

The Hallucinator lives upon the island,All alone, all aloneBecause if she didn't live there no-one else wouldAll aloneShe knows that she's the one to go before usMaking each and every border porousWith an eider quill retrace our annalsUngating all the snares, hard-panning channelsAll alone, all aloneThe vacuum drags here down to the oceanTo the bottom of the seaBut still she lands so softly she is laughingLaughing at the bottom of the seaBy there sailed a silver ship of timeShip of time, ship of timeWith cannons fanning out at every anglePort and starboard, fore and aftAn old and gilded clock was seen to dangleFrom the topmost lofty mastThe Hallucinator, she just looked and laughedThe King of Time, he's pulled her from the oceanStood here there to drip and dryAnd he's led her by the hand back to her islandStill alone as you or IHe said 'I've sailed the seven seas to find youSeven seas and twenty-threeI've sailed a sickening sea of golden coinsTo be near you, to be freeI can only tell you what I know:The dagger of the west will never linger longIn the scabbard of the eastThat gazelle will bolt and run like hellFrom any entombed EdenI've been to the north and I've been to the southI've sailed the world aroundI know the poles are doomed to shiftI know that one day soon they'll flipAnd when they do I'll reboard shipAnd go back the way I cameAnd if you've time you'll mould a child of waxMaybe chisel a child of stoneSo you'll never be aloneAnd I'll give you my silver cloak of timeWoven of the hours fineAnd if you've sense you'll hang it in a high placeTouch the hem from time to timeTime to timeTime to time
