Church - White Star Line Lyrics
You wake up in the suffocating out-of-it (arabic ? ) darknessDragging the river of your very soulYou emerge from troubled dreamsWith your head held very gentlyThink like clotted blood in a golden boneWhos promised you that ? whos paying for it ? whats waiting out there ?The soldiers in the village were sleeping in the sunThe white star line comes steaming in upon its midnight runYoure standing in the mirror, that reflection is insaneMy love is the peace which takes away the painAll of you must fly out, out of this life of nightmaresWhose spirit breath surrounds you, in the blackened nightThe horses are uneasyThe weapon is untriedYoull have to go on guessing til you reach the other sideWhos promised you that ?Whos paying for it ?Whats waiting out there ?The monkeys in the jungle are playing with a gunThe white star line comes steaming in upon its midnight runYoure reaching for the lifebuoy which the night has neatly ? ? slain? ?My love is the peace which takes away the painUp you go, youre driftingUp you go, youre floatingOver tunisiaOver spainOver germanyOver polandOver scandinaviaBack againWhos promised you that ?Whos paying for it ?Whats waiting out there ?The notices and frescoes have faded in the sunThe white star line comes steaming in upon its midnight runYou cant believe its over with no loss or gainMy love is the peace which takes away the pain
