The Legendary Pink Dots - One For The Pearl Moon lyrics
[The Legendary Pink Dots - One For The Pearl Moon lyrics]
Cave face contorted, angry eyes aflame
Spitting vows I couldn't keep i'm
One for the pearl moon
One for the pearly moon in the sky i knelt
Here, caged and weeping in the
Wind cried aloud for
Those who died for me whispered prayers for
Those who lived one for
The pearl moon prayers
For the pearl moon i slept here
As the grass grew around my head
Undisturbed though pilgrims called my
Name unimpressed by
Children's cries they cried for the
Pearl moon! Cried for the pearly moon
In the sky i rose here
Stirred by rituals in the night
Stars and circles scratched out
In the dust double lines and cups of blood -
There's blood for the pearl moon i will leave
Here i'll waste your cities
I'll smash your walls got
No mercy, though you beg me to stop
'cos I've wasted much too long
