Lyrics

Down where the sunny man seeks his sustenance Down in the below, beneath the mountain A glass hand cuts through the water Sliding into his twisted ruins Then from his eyes spring fireflies Breathing life into a roaring disguise Of needles and sins, sins and needles He's gasping for air in the wishing well Dust to rust, ashes on ashes And around the killing jar And around the killing jar A sapphire wedge that dulls eyes of ink blue Punches through his spine of rage A glass hand cuts through the water Snuffing out the magic fury Then from his eyes the lightning rise Swiftly crest and final mother size Of needles and sins, sins and needles He's gasping for air in the wishing well Dust to rust, ashes on ashes And around the killing jar And around the killing jar And around the killing jar And around the killing jar And around the killing jar And around the killing jar Killing jar
