then tangles of my mind

Lyrics

in the tangles of my mind, and a haze of mourning wine, as the swollen evening sun, turns to a morning shroud, and the purple grains of sand, whisper through my hourglass hands, convincing me i've little time for sleeping, and the sullen light of morning time, will come again, return my pain, take away my only escape, keeper, take me for a ride, the evening's daylight stands outside, upon two-legged thoughts, of candles burning, as the stardust in my eyes, turns to earthdust, halts my cries, and life's a masochistic dream of learning, and the sullen light of morning time, will come again, return my pain, take away my only escape, lock the canyons of my mind, and in sleep i'll forever lie, as reality draws near to me, i run screaming, and the purple grains of man, whisper through my hourglass hands, convincing me to spend my time in dreaming, and the sullen light of morning time, will come again, return my pain, take away my only escape
