Star Sheen - Elysian Fields

There’s a curve in every road

Don’t swerve or you might miss it

Your head’s drooping like a rose

When the sun forgot to kiss it

The desert called you there

To play songs for desert flowers

So don’t you, don’t you

Don’t you count the hours

Caught between the leaves

Of a book you cannot read

Now the words have blurred

Your mind’s disturbed

The ghouls have come to feed

I shouldn’t try to dream

Of a world that can’t be seen

For if you’re not there

I cannot bear the stars without their sheen

Only dark can feed th soul

If you don’t manipulate it

When a silent arth has spoken

Planets swoop intoxicated

So laugh with me, dear friend

We’ll tap dance to their punches

I need you, need you

Beside me in the trenches

Caught between the leaves

Of a book you cannot read

Now the words have blurred

Your mind’s disturbed

The ghouls have come to feed

Do I dare to dream

Of a world that can’t be seen

For if you’re not there

I cannot bear the stars without their sheen

If you’re not there I cannot bear

The glare of senseless gleam

If you’re not there I cannot bear

The dream within this dream
