Call the Ships to Port

A billion words ago
the sailors disappeared
a story for the children
to rock them back to sleep
a million burning books
like torches in our hands
a fabric of ideas
to decorate our home
1000 generations the soil
on which we walk
a mountain of them steaks
for us to climb for pleasure
100 clocks are ticking
the line becomes a circle
spin the wheel of fortune
learn to navigate

gauge a car full of longing
will call our six to port
the countless lonely voices
like whispers in the dark

acquire a full of longing
will call the ships to port
the countless lonely voices
like whispers in the dark

a second of reflection
can take you to the moon
the slightest hesitation
can bring you down in flames

a single spell compassion
can change your man forever
a moment in a lifetime
is all it takes to break into

a fraction of a heartbeat
made is what we are
a brother and a sister
so bed a rifle was

a billion words ago
to send me a song of leaving
an echo from the colors
will come back again

what client full of longing
will colour ships to port
the countless lonely voices
like whispers in the dark

a choir full of longing
will colour ships to port
the countless Lonely Boy cysts
like whispers in the dark

tonight we light the fires
we call our ships to port
tonight we will come water
and tomorrow will be going home

tonight we light the fires
we colour ships to port
tonight we will come water
and tomorrow we'll be gone

tonight we light the fires
we cool are ships to port
tonight we welcome your order
and tomorrow will be gone

to know I
tonight

Here there be drago- I mean, the real lyrics.

I know. I like me some weird music. But that is why you can absolutely contact me and make a wish for the blog! Just two things. One: it's better if it's a fairly well-known song (I reserve the right for the queer and weird ones, unless I know the one that you are suggesting). Secondly: I will never, ever sing Justin Bieber.
