Remorser - Landscapes

Two coins for the ferryman

The night sky is ahead of me

Shallow graves by the riverbed

I’m low down from the certainty

Of whats to come

The last call to the underworld

Dragged numb from the life of me

Doors closed from the streets above

A deep breath for the tidal waves

So hold me close

Under liars and thieves, drained blood deranged amidst the cold

I’m a bastard of man, pinned down by crooks to take my soul

Immersed in the night, as worms crawl the dirt beneath my skin

Rotten in spoils, withdrawn and silent, and plagued by sin

As black as disease, worn down and shadowed below my eyes

A serpent of tongues, wraps around my mind

Sleep a while longer

Now, don’t be afraid

Of lips in lurid opal blue

Open the sky, to infinite space

As oceans wave

It’s time to say goodbye
