Elegy to the Void

To your sons and daughters Bending at the altar Disappearing in the mirror Watch it as it burns out (It is just a flame) Freckle faced young virgin (It is just a game) Platinum vision Bringing you down again and again Again and again Black clock looming distant You're a great white They were never listening Waiting for the light to come again Deep beneath the waves Lilies of the day Garden of remains Diamond maiden chained To your sons and daughters Bending at the altar Don't you disappear in the mirror again and again Again and again Deep beneath the waves White-winged birds of May Run from hollow hills Walk into the night Deep beneath the waves Lilies of the day Run from hollow hills Walk into the night Deep beneath the waves White-winged birds of May Run from hollow hills Walk into the night --- Elegy to the Void - Beach House
