Fairy Paradise Lyrics - Grey Oceans - Cocorosie

He draws near the periphery 

In disbelief on delivery 

Came child from the deep inferno 

Crusty head of dead volcano 

Heartless crow with brittle beak 

Wooden leg too schocked to speak 

Lilac dust of a woman's hair 

A wooden cross a paper prayer 

A stone where her body lay 

A stack of feathers a pile of hay 

A mushroom for an eye ball 

A mustache from the snow fall 

Worms weave a ring where fairies square dance 

Queens and kings fairies weave wigs with eyelash 

Trance music makes the fairies dance 

From the caves of snail shells 

Echoes the mutter medieval spells 

Mystery flows her wicked river 

Of thorn and blade and silver sliver 

Bending 'round the clover fields 

Their sapling stems don't break but yield 

Her pain inflicts no arguments 

Must learn to sway and un-arrange 

As earth she makes her final passage 

After humans long have ravaged 

Vanished with all maps for motion 

Upward angels last devotion 

One by one escort us home 

To leave the elementals free to roam 

To bathe in the last of ocean's foam 

To beach comb the nuclear debris 

Our plastic toys and our metal trees 

On the perfect day you'll find the breeze 

Once blew the pollen the feet of bees 

Now cry the stars when upon the earth 

Their gaze might rest a nostalgic burst 

A lament be heard through all the cosmos 

Of the dying planet with fallen foes
