Statues - Mook

When you look at this stony face

Tell me what do you see

Do you still see me, can you see this parasite

When you look at these dead eyes

Dried up and colorless

The eyes of the motherless enjoy no company

In the gallery of my mind

Lost in the sands of time

The shadows and sounds that remind

The statues of the the past go deep tonight

When you look at this old soul

Is he trapped in the teeth of his tears

Too far gone to hear his heart still beating

When you dream about your lover’s laugh

Is he able to smile

It might take him a while,

I’m sorry, if he doesn’t like it too much

In the gallery of my mind

Lost in the sands of time

The shadows and sounds that remind

The statues of the the past go deep tonight

When you love these broken bones

Can you feel them mend

I don’t care to pretend but I slept with an angel

When you kiss these hard-layer lips

The only time they’re warm

Since the day I was born I felt the chill of love

In the gallery of my mind

Lost in the sands of time

The shadows and sounds that remind

The statues of the the past go deep tonight
