Lament And Tragedy by Totem Of The Heart Lyrics
Temporary residential homes
Housing commuters and daily travellers,
Conductors, inspectors,
Linesmen and ticket collectors
Pulsing heartbeats pounding like deep doom
On the frontline of portended bloom
Vast and unrevealed in the dead of hurry,
Sentries and applauds, gallows in trees,
From the blood of the night
I recite with strange delight
Remember the lament
Remember the tragedy
Through infernal jackals and warning hoofs
That, in restless flight, keep their lofty heads high
Flaking and bestrewing the dashing tears next line
Mother didn't teach us to scurry
Mother didn't pretend the labyrinth craze
Instead, she assured us to deride the crinoline frames
That flickered like tiny fairies in casual display,
From the blood of the night
I recite with strange delight
Remember the lament
Remember the tragedy
Housing commuters and daily travellers,
Conductors, inspectors,
Linesmen and ticket collectors
Pulsing heartbeats pounding like deep doom
On the frontline of portended bloom
Vast and unrevealed in the dead of hurry,
Sentries and applauds, gallows in trees,
From the blood of the night
I recite with strange delight
Remember the lament
Remember the tragedy
Through infernal jackals and warning hoofs
That, in restless flight, keep their lofty heads high
Flaking and bestrewing the dashing tears next line
Mother didn't teach us to scurry
Mother didn't pretend the labyrinth craze
Instead, she assured us to deride the crinoline frames
That flickered like tiny fairies in casual display,
From the blood of the night
I recite with strange delight
Remember the lament
Remember the tragedy
