August by Frankenixon Lyrics

Loons have sung and wept their aphrodesiatic songs
Where this water tastes of dreams and sweet forgetfulness
While my secrets echo far into this water-land
He, swift and silent, steals abreast my island
While the water laps at hundred-thousand-year-old rocks
Mournful trees, they turn their heads and shield me from the falling rain
Time has gone and innocence has long since taken wing
He stole my thought and she hid my reason

Oh, August
I need you
Where are you?
To restore my sense
Come autumn
And winter
She'll vanish
And leave me cold as ice

Oh, the moon is gliding gracefully above this town
Shades are stalking noiselessly around the house and through the walls
As I fill this space with reminiscent mockeries
You watch me cry with your hard eyes
My heart fills with joy as you confess your hopelessness
Unable to see that all the love you have is for yourself
As I stand to watch our suffocating darkness leave
I give my soul and you're set for treason
Oh, August
Where are you?
I need you
To restore my sense
Come autumn
And winter
She'll vanish
And leave me cold as ice

Oh, August
Where are you?
I need you
To restore my sense
Come autumn
And winter
She'll vanish
And leave me cold as ice
