Elysian Fields Star Sheen Lyrics

There's a curve in every road
Don't swerve or you might miss it
Your head's drooping like a rose
When the sun forgot to kiss it

The desert called you there
To play songs for desert flowers
So don't you, don't you
Don't you count the hours

Caught between the leaves
Of a book you cannot read
Now the words have blurred
Your mind's disturbed
The ghouls have come to feed
I shouldn't try to dream
Of a world that can't be seen
For if you're not there
I cannot bear the stars without their sheen

Only dark can feed thе soul
If you don't manipulate it When a silent еarth has spoken
Planets swoop intoxicated

So laugh with me, dear friend
We'll tap dance to their punches
I need you, need you
Beside me in the trenches
Caught between the leaves
Of a book you cannot read
Now the words have blurred
Your mind's disturbed
The ghouls have come to feed
Do I dare to dream
Of a world that can't be seen
For if you're not there
I cannot bear the stars without their sheen

If you're not there I cannot bear
The glare of senseless gleam
If you're not there I cannot bear
The dream within this dream
