Songtext von Romance Me

Romance me, ransom me Is solace a hopeless crusade The grandeur of a raping plague A portrait that is best forgotten Bed of fire for the dying orphans Is there a bridge for the endless mote A river for the arid throat A sun for the winter flower A knight in the weeping hour The poison sails on ships with pain My veins have never known My eyes have seen the glory of the antidote A love lifted, the curse has left its birthplace Romance me, ransom me A love lifted, in paradise remember me Romance me, ransom me The idol that birthed betrayal Where eulogies have littered the trail A song that is sung with a fork-ed tongue Blackballed by the angels And we're dropping like flies An assault to the eyes Spraying death in every direction This infection's a torrential tide The poison sails on ships with pain My veins have never known My eyes have seen the glory of the antidote A love lifted The curse has left its birthplace Romance me, ransom me A love lifted In paradise remember me Romance me, ransom me Amazing, sweet mercy Romance me, ransom me Amazing, sweet mercy Romance me, ransom me The curse has left its birthplace Romance me, ransom me A love lifted In paradise remember me Romance me, (romance!!) ransom me (ransom) And we're dropping like flies An assault to the eyes
