Hauptseite/Home: Deutsch † English *********************************************** Dalit - Descent Album: Descent *********************************************** I kiss the tourniquet Gently maiming my body Piece by piece Embracing a lie By sacrificial bleeding To endure the night Beyond the cold forever I bury my dreams of you Close within yet still so far away Is this the great affection The golden path of old That leads us all in dismay? Desert shores of human merit Come quench my thirst Oceans left to conquer Depths to be fought Brick by brick We carry the load Raising our beacon To eclipse the sun By the black holes in your eyes Beyond all substitutes Below all walls of pride Beneath the outmost contempt I bury my heart for you
