The sunlight plays the wrecking ball to the timeline.
Was it last rites or only shades confirmed?
I know now what I seek to see,
tripping, trapped along the long wadi
Right now I see you crawl from the Dead Sea.
So you tell me if this be heresy
My son, my son, my holy ghost.
The moonlight sands, our only host.
