The Pretty Things - Alexander Lyrics
Eastern shores, they seemed so full of promiseMinarets they lacerate the skylineOpposing seas will drift into the harbourGirls, they die with screams of AlexanderYou'll only kneel at the Fire GodYou'll only kneel at the Fire GodYou'll only kneel at the...Balthazar consults his book of numbersBuildings jangle with the children's laughterMothers, they gather eyes of distant featuresA woman's face dissolves, I hear her screetches.You'll only kneel at the Fire GodYou'll only kneel at the Fire GodPoet dies, stabbed with the knife of wordsYoung girl marries with bouquet of lettersOne life explodes and slides into the seaThe city lies buried beneath the cursesYou'll only kneel at the Fire GodYou'll only kneel at the Fire GodYou'll only kneel at the Fire God
