Roses, take your cover Wild beauty travels south; Truth will out but always speaks From both sides of her mouth. She's a stone in water, She's a rising bell The invention of another, I make no assumptions what she'll tell. For now, the word is moving through, sliding in beside of you; You disappear - the both, you do: One into the other The jailer's singing down the halls his lonesome song of love; Tapping like a miner with his keys on pipes above. A lantern revolution, We're bright without a line But I make no assumptions now just what my light will find For now, the dark is moving through, sliding in beside of you; You disappear -the both, you do: One into the other The dead will close their bottle eyes of their own stubborn accord, Escaping by the roof the darkest pleasures of the lord. I pay my debt to mercy With all of it come my way I make no assumptions now what more I'm due today For now, time is moving through, sliding in beside of you; You disappear -the both, you do: one into the other
