lyrics

Seeking modern life without a care
she will go down into the lens of a romance of a shadow
where she works all day, all night
so that tomorrow comes along

There's a cornerstone holding a place
where the echo of my footsteps were heard long ago
where she spoke into my eyes
and kissed the merchant of my soul

WIth her rose-colored hair
she goes anywhere she wishes
And that come-hither stare
conquers me

SHe faces east and she works all day, all night
The sounds of human screams as she works all day, all night

When the state divines it is the time
to go on down into a trance all of her own
she works all day, all night
keeping her followers in breathless tow

Some try to understand
others just glance and then pretend that they know
that when she breathes her air
it is the morning sky that gleams as it is gifted of the sight

Of her rose-colored hair
and a notion of a girl
who could redact all their cares
with a com-hither stare

With a tomahawk she cleaves into the night
leaving an endless trail of headless freaks behind
