The Window

Why do you stand by the window

Abandoned to beauty and pride

The thorn of the night in your bosom

The spear of the age in your side

Lost in the rages of fragrance

Lost in the rags of remorse

Lost in the waves of a sickness

That loosens the high silver nerves

Oh chosen love oh frozen love

Oh tangle of matter and ghost

Oh darling of angels

Demons and saints

And the whole broken-hearted host

Gentle this soul

And come forth

From the cloud of anoint

And kiss the cheek of the moon

The new jerusalem glowing

Why tarry all night in the ruin

And leave no word of discomfort

And leave no observer to mourn

But climb on your tears

And be silent

Like a rose on it's ladder of thorns

Oh chosen love oh frozen love

Oh tangle of matter and ghost

Oh darling of angels

Demons and saints

And the whole broken-hearted host

Gentle this soul

Then lay your rose on the fire

The fire give up to the sun

The sun give over to splendour

In the arms of the high holy one

For the holy one dreams of a letter

Dreams of a letters death

Oh bless thee continuous stutter

Of the word being made into flesh

Oh chosen love oh frozen love

Oh tangle of matter and ghost

Oh darling of angels

Demons and saints

And the whole broken-hearted host

Gentle this soul

Gentle this soul

Oh chosen love oh frozen love

Oh tangle of matter and ghost

Oh darling of angels

Demons and saints

And the whole broken-hearted host
