Pearls Before Swine - Lepers And Roses lyrics

The halo morning has dissolved The day is gone And nothing's solved For you The sand castles are merely sand The sea has crawled back From your hand Too soon In fields where Susan sings The leopard brings Yesterday In upon a string And all your dead rainbows Begin to stain The lace on your raincoat So leave the blind Roses behind You Orpheus takes you by the hand Leads you into another land Land without shade Where trees are made For you, Teresius Will try to find A monument To the d**h of eyes So leave the blind Roses behind You If you knew tomorrow was Just yesterday Hiding behind a mask What would you ask? What could you ask? Alpha and Omega laugh Behind a gla** Sell bootstraps from a bag Nowhere to hide The rest is a lie So leave the blind Roses behind You
