From the recording Russian Carpet
Lyrics
Fade in: black and white
Jars turned upside down
Walls scream silent flight
Of a journey too long
This state of famine
This place of distant light
A heart is stolen
Defaced caryatid
I just want it to stop
Close up: blazin'
Rivers running dry
Traces of the end of time
In the corner of my eye
This state of famine
This place of distant light
A heart is stolen
Defaced caryatid
I just want it to stop
