Off - Alter Der Ruine

I love what you’ve done.

I love what you’ve done.

Where did the lights go?

I’ve got to sell it so this won’t turn me down.

Down.

Okay here comes the numb afterthoughts that dull all sounds down.

Will we speak now?

Do you speak now?

All I hear are Whip-poor-wills

Does the river call?

Do you heed a boatman’s call?

Take these coins I wish you well.

(chorus)

As for me I’ll find the long way home

I know you, you’ll follow so closely

Luster won’t fade away, still it doesn’t seem to settle the drag these days

and I’ll come around I’ll come around.

I’ll come around it’ll be okay.

Got the quiet now.

I’ll carry it awhile 'til it folds me in two.

Then the tears come.

Come to dry me out and leave me waif in the grass now.

Usher in repose, tinged in disgusted throes

Can’t tell if they’re for you or me.

Must wander now

Let this air surround and carry to a softer place.
