"Cemetery Of Splendour" lyrics
"Cemetery Of Splendour"
When you call, when you call my name
Breath fills a shut-down space
Mouths were opened here once
There was a band on
Hear the buzzing of the empty halls
Or all rooms that are empty at any point in time, sigh
Ah
Once you played in empty bars
Performing for the beer tap and the pool tables
Nobody giving you their card
Because you have potential
Almost nothing interrupting ideas
Jittering in the jiggers
They sound like the way to another
Now you go to the afterlife
You've heard good things about it
But the embers are cooling
And the spirits are just names plus one
And you see tagged-over posters with faces out of frame
Boarded up windows that watch you walk away
All things abandoned are following your steps
Associating from space to emptiness
Tagged-over posters with faces out of frame
Boarded up windows that watch you walk away
All things abandoned are following your steps
Associating from space to emptiness
(Trees sticks rocks bamboo leaf bamboo leaf again
And then the branch the branch
The pine cones and the birds in the distance
Gum gum gum cigarette butts candy wrapper a button
A slug shoes came here and here and here
Someone once lay down here by the trees the trees and the pine cones
Trees sticks rocks bamboo leaf bamboo leaf again
And then the branch the branch
The pine cones and the birds in the distance
Gum gum gum cigarette butts candy wrapper a button
A slug shoes came here and here and here
Someone once lay down here by the trees and the pine cones)

Sometimes you forget
To just let me in a bit
