Black Jester - Diary Of A Blind Angel lyrics

Walking all alone on twilight's boulevards, Still picking up tears of mother pearl from the cold ashes of my uselessness, Dressin' in dark, the dark evening's cloak Waitin' all alone with new curiosity, That's my heart of silk tumbling on roaring streets. Eyes of stone for a little universe of bleeding stars and crowded wilderness Siren screams, the call of the crowd Siren screams, seduction of the strong My wings are broken and I can't join you on the grand highway of the laughing sun. Against the wind of your certainties, just a losing sun and his haltin' gait I still fall down, but I'll shout again my need to live, outside your fortress. My wings are broken and I can't join you on the grand highway of the laughing sun. It still rains on the blind angel's diary and the words will slip away If only I could I would climb your mountains to find a nest hanging on my horizon If only I could I would swim through the entrails of your glad surface-reality If only I could I would take part in the ritual of your obstinate normality Angel of outskirts the night saw you dying and the day had never been your friend Like an old man with Pierrot's gaze I know his soul, thrown in a corner... ...and his eyes of stone for a little universe of bleeding stars and crowded wilderness Against the wind of your certainties just a losing son and his haltin' gait My wings are broken and I can't join you on the grand highway of the laughing sun.
