Bilingual
You wretched son
You're Stretched to break
This ain't your dance,
You stowaway
So have a smoke
Some Dramamine
And cleanse your soul,
Good Augustine
You're stepping bold
On concrete paths
With your sacred skin
Your Roman baths
Your borrowed thoughts,
Your stolen threads,
The dying fire
Inside your head
But when the end, it comes
You won't find it surprising
How they speak in ancient tongues
At the horizon
And all the charms you've kept
The walls you've wept stay dark
And never will they brighten
I came to graze
What you harvested
The liturgy
Of charlatans
And I rise in praise
Of all you've done
With my supple hands
My broken thumbs
But when the end, it comes
You won't find it surprising
How they speak in ancient tongues
At the horizon
And all the charms you've kept
The walls you've wept stay dark
And never will they brighten
The jury's hung
The town's in drought
I slipped one time
And they found me out
So I went to sea
When I couldn't swim
I pulled the sheet
I settled in
