Burdens
Erase the past
Escape into the future
And from the burden of heaven
This is for your dreams and prayers
Your curses and your condemnations
Secretly wishing to see fire in the street
And smoke in the sky
This one is for the blind
Who can’t see where dawn ends
Melody eternal
Anguish and joy in perfect harmony
Melody unheard eternally
Drowning in endless monotony
Monotones murmur
Through the Milky Way
Wrapped around your hips
Our sorrow will ferment
In wine of rose hips
Working for spare change and lousy tips
Songs and incantations
Of desperate men in forgotten destinations
I’ve been predestined for a life of consternation
One tone slides into another
Please return to your cross
For a demonstration
Of the manifestation
Of loss
Erase the plot
Forget the story
And the relentless burden of history
