Alex Izenberg - Drinking the Dusk Away Lyrics

Born in emerald flame
Of nameless dreams of yours
The subject of it's worship
Rings deep in my devotion

Drinking the dusk away
As death walks behind you
Desires come desires go
Reflecting the southern shore


But in the end
It's only time to kill

My quietus faithful
Will find me ascending
Many moons from now
What dreams are bound to come?

Tomorrow is but a memory
The canyon lights adore you
Kept from the edge of twilight
To the presence and the absence

Of the ocean with no mind
To retain my sight

The carpet is the grass
Before the tears of a meadowlark
Sleeping knowledge halts
And dyed the darksome night black

With metaphors
Beyond eternal bonds
