you're a night owl , you're a raccoon baby
your papas a thief, ain't he
look out in the distance, look up at the stars
shake your fist to the heavens, it don't look that far,
you been in the bars, rings round your eyes
tell me a riddle , a word to the wise
gypsy rings, the glitter and skin
black tattoos, one for every place you've been
take the tall ship baby, haunted by spirits
the moon is calling,can you hear it?
come with me, like the wolves we'll run
there's nothing here, there never was
half moon night, with the sun come the day
what is this strange place? it Doesn't matter anyway
vengeance baby, that's my last request
I wanna feel the blade , go inside your chest
I wanna become wrath, I wanna become the night
I wanna become the wolf , I wanna become fire
do you still speak to God? he still does not speak to me
can you be this lost? Out at sea?
well if you speak to God, tell him not to wait
I'm not coming up. Its too late
