Stagnation

[Intro]

(Ah-ah-ah, ah-ah-ah, ah-ah-ah

Ah-ah-ah-ah-ah-ah)

[Verse 1]

Here today, the red sky tells his tale

But the only listening eyes are mine

There is peace amongst the hills

And the night will cover all my pride

Blessed are they who smile from bodies free

Seems to me like any other crowd

Who are waiting to be saved

[Instrumental Break]

[Verse 2]

Wait, there still is time

For washing in the pool, wash away the past

Moon, my long-lost friend is smiling from above (Ah, ah-ah-ah, ah-ah-ah)

Smiling at my tears (Ah-ah-ah-ah-ah, ah-ah-ah-ah)

Come, we'll walk the path to take us to my home (Ah-ah-ah, ah-ah-ah-ah-ah)

Keep outside the night (Ah-ah-ah-ah)

The ice-cold knife has come to decorate the dead (Ah, ah-ah-ah, ah-ah-ah)

Somehow (Ah-ah-ah-ah-ah)

And each will find a home

And there will still be time

For loving, my friend

You are there

And will I wait forever

Beside the silent mirror

And fish for bitter minnows

Amongst the weeds and slimy water?

[Interlude]

Ooh, ooh

Ooh, ooh, ooh

[Verse 3]

I, I, I, I, I

I, I, I, I, I said I want to sit down

I, I, I, I, I

I, I, I, I, I said I want to sit down

I want a drink, I want a drink

To take all the dust and the dirt from my throat

I want a drink, I want a drink

To wash out the filth that is deep in my guts

I want a drink

[Flute Solo]

[Outro]

Then let us drink

Then let us smile

Then let us go
