Church - Magician Among The Spirits lyrics

Far across the water, far across the sea, magician among the spirits, the next delivery And the scene is set up, the boy who lost his mind, a sudden smell of ether as machines unwind Universe of distant stars chilling in its failings With planets spinning deep in space parading all its flavours We sit and stare into the night and contemplate forever Slip away into your dreams, conclude that we may never Out and past the harbour where the sharks dream (stream ?) in the waves Magician among the spirits is drowning in a cave As Solomon's my witness, as Gabriel is my guard (god ?) Garden of the lovely ones in the devil's back yard (?) Hand of God sprinkle j**els inside the velvet ceiling Filling up our unsure hearts with wonder, awe and feeling All the eyes are staring down and glitter like small children Their secrets kept, lost in thought, looking at what fueled them Singing 'bout the old times, sepia and faded Magician among the spirits the past has been invaded Robert Houdini in the distance, we look up through the water See the comet's silver trail, see the planets falter Vast science, eternal night shrouded in dark mazes Runes and tunes preconceived flowing through their phases Your air or cover (??) wind is dead, consequences endless Speed of light and empty time your borders to defenders (?) Walking in the wilderness with my pale sister Magician among the spirits I said how much I miss her Jackson on the slipstream, he's moving all around Chasing tiny orphans, following the sounds, following the sounds Fragile and delirious, cannot understand it Magician among the spirits, electra and miranda Pa**ed you in a corridor you were drinking
