Salt-less sea, rained upon by salted tears
Love’s refugee tastes salt as he disappears as he disappears
She lit a fire to lead him to her side
They quenched the fire to take away his guide, to take away the light
Tell me oh tell me
what’s now my story
my flames no longer
thirst for the sky
Night closes in, I
can’t peel’t away, it
clings like a shroud, it
darkens the day
Tell me oh tell me
after my story
how do I leave my
island of stone
Named for his sadness
endlessly echoed
this island holds me,
maiden turned crone
Give me a story
one that will lead me
out of the echo
of one lone cry
How many places
hold as their namesake
only the pain of
one dying sigh
Tell me oh tell me
endlessly echoed
what’s now my story’s
shroud-darkened day
After my story
my flames still thirst for
only the pain of
his sadness named
Give me a story
out of the echo
named for the dying
thirst for the light.
Tell me oh tell me
tell me oh tell me
what’s now the story
of my lone cry
Give me a story
after my story
tell me oh tell me
tell me oh tell me
