Half Light

[Verse 1] In retreat to the soil & cleansed of pests It clashed with the oil & rhymed with the rest It mended the fault & mended the hole It rallied the cult & invented its role [Chorus] It′s haunting me in the way things do when they are gone It's killing me in a way I can′t do on my own [Verse 2] I left the pistol on the sink Though I have not seen you for an age I spilled my only vial of ink & it spread like blood across the page Tie the loop in your Apollo's knot & turn your face away from me I pine for what I haven't got & wither here in fealty [Chorus] It′s haunting me in the way things do when they are gone It′s killing me in a way I can't do on my own [Bridge] One sees it in half-light, a vision on waking One sees it as upright, but always rotating [Chorus x2] It′s haunting me in the way things do when they are gone It's killing me in a way I can′t do on my own It's haunting me in the way things do when they are gone It′s killing me in a way I can't do on my own
