Storm in a Glass of Water

We know how it ends We know how it will tear us apart Arms stretched to the ocean Arms around the clock we'll succumb We know how it ends It sure will end It'll take us apart Comforting's the way how silence Finds its way to open arms It followed me back home, that rat I cracked, I felt its luring charm It's following me where the night begins Across the line between Picture blurs, the clock arms turn I'm out of hospitality We'll be one It feels like turning into something in between It's coming, it's rightwards upside down Black fortress, evil empire It's coming to hunt down all we are Just scorches, towers aspired I'm trying to find back to your arms Black fortress, evil empire It's coming to hunt down all we are All we are So the evening slipped Into the night and then to dawn We sent the newborn To a faraway ship and To a battle he would row A few would row back And we drank and we drank And we drank at the cemetery gates As always And, as always Surroundings in line with the taste Of a life Gone to waste It's coming, it's rightwards upside down Black fortress, evil empire It's coming to hunt down all we are Just scorches, towers aspired I'm trying to find back to your arms Black fortress, evil empire It's coming to hunt down all we are Black fortress, evil empire Empire
