when you look at this stony face,
tell me what do you see?
do you still see me,
then you see this parasite?
when you look at these dead eyes, dried up and colorless
the eyes off the motherless
enjoy no company
in the gallery of my mind
lost in the sands of time
the shadows and sounds that remind
the statues of the past
roll deep, tonight
when you look at this old soul
is he trapped in the teeth of his tear
too far gone to hear his heart still beating
when you dream about your lovers laugh,
is he able to smile?
it might take him a while
I'm sorry, if he doesn't like it too much
in the gallery of my mind
lost in the sands of time
the shadows and sounds that remind
the statues of the past
roll deep, tonight
when you love these broken bones
can you feel them mend?
don't care to pretend, but i slept with an angel
when you kiss these hard lower lips
when you kiss these heart-murmur lips
the only time they're warm
is just the day i was born
in the gallery of my mind
lost in the sands of time
the shadows and sounds that remind
the statues of the past
roll deep, tonight
