Vespertine Lyrics

This is all that I can bring today

somehow I don't know the sum will tell

some ideas might be good, some not

separate the brilliant from absurd

calculate the price for every speed

welcome home, come in, sit down and eat

this is all that I can bring today

somehow I don't know the price we'll pay

what if the extracted ones unfold

just before the latest haul is sold

don't you think we'll both the scaffold meet

welcome home, come in, sit down and eat

flowers are closed and lambs are sleeping

while the birds are silence keeping

flowers are closed and lambs are sleeping

I composed the very night

here's the place where I can hide

turn a blind eye to the day

the people we betrayed

here I carry on the dream

goin' back to the edges' green

to redeem the scars of life

for just another dive

the feast is over

this is all that I can bring today

somehow I don't know the price we'll pay

in the alphabetic sort sequence

indicate the most extravagance

what if only one of the extracted thoughts repents

let me go before the test will end

scared to knock when all the knuckles bleed

don't you think we'll both the scaffold meet

please let the children know not of our crime

we've pretended every thought was mine

from the gramophone a bitter suite

welcome home, come in, sit down

flowers are closed and lambs are sleeping

while the birds are silencing keeping

flowers are closed and lambs are sleeping

I composed the very night

here's the place where I can hide

turn a blind eye to the day

the people we betrayed

here I carry on the dream

goin' back to the edges' green

to redeem the scars of life

for just another dive
