Lyrics:
I am making something for you
For all the things I never said
I am making a world for us
In the interim of sense
Byzantium leaving
Oh, I was
Byzantium to Bohemia
Our gothic suicide absinthe romance
With you I travel the seven seas
There where the demons and angels dance
From the Tsarist land
plains
They built princedoms with their native hands
And with pride in their hearts
Crying battle calls to capture foreign lands
Byzantium heard them
to me
Byzantium hits back with cataphracts
Besiege the walls, ferocious attack
Final assault, bringing out the big guns
Down goes the beast that stand
and who bled on her pause
Nothing else will do for it
To ruin or to ruction
Friend follow the instructions
And we'll rave
We're raving towards Byzantium
Byzantium! We now prepare to lay siege to this ancient and splendoured city
Strangely, the order has been given that the Byzantine library is to be searched
Washed into a sentimental gloom
Loneliness about the
Battle-clad byzantium commands
And these dark cards look nothing like my hand
Lightning
headed deep in chartreuse
A falcon glimpse of white teeth
Separated by lace cinnamon folds
We hid and rid in hansom
Cab wrenched from lost Byzantium
of thoughts and images,
but still I would wade through
and seek what I knew was waiting to welcome me.....
Elysium to Greece,
Byzantium to Yates.
Few brief
I was as they were... I too spoke in echonian tongue and sang the
songs of Byzantium. As Midas had with touch, I was granted with a vision,
headed deep in chartreuse
A falcon glimpse of white teeth
Separated by lace cinnamon folds.
We hid and rid in hansom
Cab wrenched from lost Byzantium
A voice is heard upon the shore
A voice wails and mocks the roar
A Tale so sad
Byzantium has fallen to the ground!
That sound!
Her freedom has
footsteps glow like dust in light through the window
As they raise their sails
For Byzantium winds
They will find streets of gold
Cast no reflections of them
Like Yeats said, "That is no country for old men"
And like so many other things, he was right
But he was referring to Byzantium
Not Burlington
up her children
I read you books who's
Bindings were worn and well known
You twirled in skirts who's
Fabrics held hues from the loam
Byzantium called
Byzantium
Strangle this weakness possessing our time,
a need to be fraguile, pristine and sublime.
Curl up in your core, surrender and die.
Leave us alone
I will tremble the walls of Rome, in the Orient I will raise my throne
All the west I reclaimed and Byzantium shall carry my name
Apparition in
brain is fucking damaged
Every gram of microplastics
Every wave electrostatics
Every ounce of cadmium
Kills me like Byzantium
Bitch!
My name is Sean,
up her children
I read you books who's
Bindings were worn and well known
You twirled in skirts who's
Fabrics held hues from the loam
Byzantium called
up her children
I read you books who's
Bindings were worn and well known
You twirled in skirts who's
Fabrics held hues from the loam
Byzantium called
up her children
I read you books who's
Bindings were worn and well known
You twirled in skirts who's
Fabrics held hues from the loam
Byzantium called
up her children
I read you books who's
Bindings were worn and well known
You twirled in skirts who's
Fabrics held hues from the loam
Byzantium called
the multitude of my sins
They will sing my song after Byzantium has gone
The woman who rejected the king
I've heard all the things that they've called me
you
This is an odyssey for me
Running in the streets of poor
Having found the stairs to Byzantium
Dancing on the living room floor
Sliding back
