Desperate Secrecy - Decadence

Alone in the far corner of a world of dreams

I listen to the plaintive whisper of sweet memories

They’re clipped with time, a sedate, soothing rhyme

Slowly cries the litany of mine

Over this landscape of loose translation

My trembling gathers a tacit rejection

In seclusion I dwell in deep desolation

In desperate secrecy, my pain

I live to steal the night again

The day has come too soon

Sobbing, the stranger’s clutch is due

So little time to learn so much

No other night could bring such a passionate touch

Over this landscape of loose translation

My trembling gathers a tacit rejection

In seclusion I dwell in deep desolation

In desperate secrecy, my pain

I live to steal the night again

Finally all the destructive words were said

Nothing left only to keep what is sacred

The memories kept again for all remaining time

But now, there’s a future in this fucking crime

Over this landscape of loose translation

My trembling gathers a tacit rejection

In seclusion I dwell in deep desolation

In desperate secrecy, my pain

I live to steal the night again
