What's this song about?
Generate meaning
1
gather 'round, you wounded people
2
shadows fall upon the steeple,
3
soon shall come the closing of,
4
the closing of the gates
5
for there is a word of plague among us
6
curse the one whose poison stung us,
7
all along the alleyways
8
the satyrs wait their fate
9
but who's to blame when all are guilty
10
morals stained & conscience filthy
11
abreast your idol replicas
12
your replicas of lust,
13
in the sky i hear the threshing
14
dare to watch your lord undressing
15
while you beg forgiveness,
16
you feed on his disgust -
17
but if perhaps the salt might stain your skin
18
and if perhaps the smoke might weep your eyes
19
listen while the threnodies begin
20
know no one in here gets out alive.
21
but let your frailty not deceive you
22
a little pinprick, rest relieves you,
23
and dream of all the days that are,
24
the years that are to come -
25
for you will dance & you'll be nimble
26
pirouettes upon a thimble
27
& i will be beside you
28
lest i lose you once again.
29
but if perhaps my sorrows all are show
30
and i should find a crack among the gates,
31
guilt shall follow me where'er i go
32
though i try i know i can't escape
33
and when you're gone the earth will crumble
34
i will try but i will stumble
35
and all through these city streets
36
my robes shall drag the ground
37
hear the children swing with sorrow,
38
yesterday was once tomorrow
39
no more i'll be troubled by the troubles of this world
40
but if i lose my step along the way
41
and if the speech of victim fills my throat
42
out beyond the cliffs that shape the day
43
it's there i'll wander, there i'll stray
44
it's there i'll look for you when all my trials are done
45
i feign sleep to save my breath,
46
this love is loss, this life is theft,
47
and all that's left is some vain need to carry on
48
and though i fear the tightening of the skies
49
against the dawn i'll watch you rise
50
oh lord, the company i keep within my head
51
the scent of flesh might tease the nose
52
it claims the calm, it clings the clothes
53
could that be you, my love?
54
your dust upon the wind?
