Corvus Corona Part 2 Songtext / Lyric

He enlists an able deck-hand to wield the drill,

a vortex in his cortex to release his will.

As spiral enters he spins out of control.

All magic circles under those eyes -

mental ventilation won't stifle their cries,

his futility belt all crowded with spies.



His one good eye now all a ghastly squint,

head held together with sorrow and spit.

So much haste, too much speed,

spasm-tongued sermon decreed;



I opened my eyes and I stared right through my photographs of you.

I opened my eyes and I choked out through my memory of faith.






... a malady on the mainline...

A man of inaction, a greyer of shades.

Prey to twisting frequencies with whom he once played.



Wild of eye and long in tooth,

lies all that are left for our seeker of truth.

A stoop-backed, sad sack, all thoughts side-tracked.

Onrush of water through compromised hull.



I opened my eyes and I stared right through my photographs of you.

I opened my eyes and I choked out through my memory of faith.



Crow's nest crowded with cackling crew,

all staring faces peering straight through.

Leering out of this unwitting host,

a-raising the black sails and floating his ghost.



I opened my eyes and I stared right through my photographs of you.

I opened my eyes and I choked out through my memory of faith.



I shuttered my eyes and I stared right through my photographs of you.

I shuttered my eyes and I choked out through my memory of faith.
