Have You Fallen From The Moon?

from Languid Motion by Swan Messiah

lyrics

Not good or bad but wretched types
Fall beyond the sun
They're caught by midnight zephyrs
Where the wild zealots run

Marched up to the watchtowers
They can't mistake the view
Of children dressed in scarlet
And their killers dressed in blue

While edging through the granite sea
The wizard's monsoon swells
Distinguishing the virgin's sin
And feeding dried up wells

The blazes in the distant mountains
Fuel the wings of hawks
Painted by the phantom's hand
While arsonists they walk

Curious endeavors of the
Temple Junky's ride
Impaled on the sun dial
While dragonflies collide

Getting here from nowhere but
Delivered from the sky
Returning may not be the end
My requiem is nigh

Have you fallen from the moon
Or from the monkey's eye?
