Alter Der Ruine - Doom Patrol
Should winds speak 'o' orphans you must listen
For last words fall when the soul drifts to dream
O stale sweet words you offer but tears for a doomed patrol
ever building spirals, never knowing the plans
The structure wails for a mothers bones
Lo she speaks in a hall of symphony
Only when I left you, were you free to wander lucidly
Go to the shores at darkest night and count the bodies in the waves
If fingers stir the stones a serpent will rise
from the tide
from the flesh
from the foam
I'll say I'm sorry and you won't hear me
For I'm leaving the shores in the belly of a beast
Please don't forget me
For last words fall when the soul drifts to dream
O stale sweet words you offer but tears for a doomed patrol
ever building spirals, never knowing the plans
The structure wails for a mothers bones
Lo she speaks in a hall of symphony
Only when I left you, were you free to wander lucidly
Go to the shores at darkest night and count the bodies in the waves
If fingers stir the stones a serpent will rise
from the tide
from the flesh
from the foam
I'll say I'm sorry and you won't hear me
For I'm leaving the shores in the belly of a beast
Please don't forget me
