The Tear Garden
Текст песни Romulus And Venus

Everything you gave me lies within a trunk,
within a drawer. I burned one
hundred photographs or more.
I fled across the ocean with another face,
another name. Nothing but my soul remained the same.
But still you came
with cases, I was forced to let you stay.
You bought the locks, the box in
which I lay..... I tried to get away from you.
I tried to make a break.
You always see right through me –
there's no escape... I can still
remember you with cornets, white horses,
I would run behind - you'd flash
the sign. I dived just to serve you.
But night-time turned the lady to a
girl again, you'd slip away.
You tried to kiss my tears away, pretend
there was no day to take me down...
Nightshade, blades, Niagra Falls - I
tried them all six times.
But you would always run behind me and you'd
find me. Keep me on a leash, on a line...
I'm uncomfortably resigned
there's no release 'til you untie me.
Deny me! I tried to get away from
you...
