War Lovers

from Songs For A Dying Year by Paper Gods

/

about

Dedicated to those who would only have found one another under the circumstances of war and to those who see life as a process of vanquishing foes.

lyrics

war lovers

deep in your bed at night
under the fever of darkness
after the rays have set down
beneath the brace of your covers

the fading call of psyche
as if you’re even able
what will you say to her now
what can you take away.

and after all that war
she never left you with manna.
and if you sleep in the light
you know the moon would avoid you.

I’ve been lonely now
for over ten thousand years

if there’s a rogue in the world
how can our armies defeat it.
and what can war lovers do
after the guns have erased them.
