lyrics

In this blade of starlight
In this maze of the night
As they roll on by,
not a thing in the world you can do
You belonged here once
Made a fortune and drank
‘til the lady showed her spades –
Mosquito in the shade

In this teal-crazy room
By this rude and obscure foreign moon
Maybe true was false
Maybe I was the only thing left to do
Make a monster of me…
I will roll my hand in it,
take what the Gods say I’m due
Mosquitoes drink it blue

Maybe all those shapes will reappear
as they fade to grey
But I assure you,
in the darkness, dear
I smell you
far, far away
