Frankenixon - August lyrics

Loons have sung and wept their aphrodesiatic songs Where this water tastes of dreams and sweet forgetfulness While my secrets echo far into this water-land He, swift and silent, steals abreast my island While the water laps at hundred-thousand-year-old rocks Mournful trees, they turn their heads and shield me from the falling rain Time has gone and innocence has long since taken wing He stole my thought and she hid my reason Oh, August I need you Where are you? To restore my sense Come autumn And winter She'll vanish And leave me cold as ice Oh, the moon is gliding gracefully above this town Shades are stalking noiselessly around the house and through the walls As I fill this space with reminiscent mockeries You watch me cry with your hard eyes My heart fills with joy as you confess your hopelessness Unable to see that all the love you have is for yourself As I stand to watch our suffocating darkness leave I give my soul and you're set for treason Oh, August Where are you? I need you To restore my sense Come autumn And winter She'll vanish And leave me cold as ice Oh, August Where are you? I need you To restore my sense Come autumn And winter She'll vanish And leave me cold as ice
