(a Sleep) In A Watery Red Lyrics - Dark At Dawn

Night's fallen, flesh's calling 

spilling in the flood some tears of blood and agony 

There on the beach lying 

wasting and staining the sands of time indifferently 

Stranded on the shores of life 

The fish's kiss - it still remains unanswered 

Chorus 

Bathing in silence, yearning to swim 

on a calm and quiet ocean 

urging to sin or to breathe with no motion 

while hearing the sound of sweet violence 

Torch-bearer's burned wings 

firing all the arrows in a broken fantasy 

Star's fallen, sand-crawling 

dropping just like jetsam from a lonely ship at sea 

Stranded on the shores of life 

The fish's kiss - it still remains unanswered 

Chorus 

Until the day's end's 

a bitter wet bed seeking a soft place for a rest of my head 

Tender the arms which embrace the brave 

I am fallen asleep in a watery red. 

Chorus
