Fader

08/27/14

On sunken wings, we sail endless and forever

The scarlet leaves fall from the trees and cast no shadow

In halos, the rangers are back to devour

All that we held without the likeness of power

And there’s a face beneath this mid-summer’s moon

Shining down upon us, with the goddess in the pool

Glowing with the angels, swimming naked in the pool

haunted every hour by the hallowed ghoul

You've gone too far, through the deepest stars

We drive in our cars, and you disappear

Glowing with the dead floating in the pool

But I’m not just anyone’s fool

On carousels we leave the fear of death

Neither does man nor ghost in this world rest

But the angels shine down on me

Down on me from above
