Tale o' Desire

Tale o' Desire  -  Pan Thistle, 2015

Midnight boat leaving
the shores of Actium
the journey has begun

A latent worry, a masquerade
a guessing game of your mind
round midnight
tale o' desire
in your mind
tale o' desire

Welcome to the centre of her stage
action packs
tighten the noose around the neck of hope
champions fall
tale o' desire
the gains fixed
tale o' desire

Dark end of the street, words are bitter-sweet
fear is the spark that lights your fire, your desire

tale o' desire

You keep telling me, we've got to make a stand
all the killing, the maiming, the burning land
our weapons are blessed by leaders of the Church
have you got all the facts, who jumped the gun?

A world war hero turned into a vampire
Questions burn.. the right side? the wrong side?
he found comfort in young blood
tale o' desire
found comfort in young blood
tale o' desire

Prosperity and suffering
obscenity, the hyperlink expires
the planet is dying, mountains melt
energy leaks mar your silicon face
and all the while your pressroom mind is set on
power cars and mobile phones
and how you deal with your core,
mind controlling, insatiable desires?
professional liar..

Tale o' desire
take me higher now
tale o' desire
