Rough Silk - Toxical Roses Lyrics

will the forces of daybreak someday quit the fight?

do androids dream of electric sheep in the night?

faster than light?

will princes of anger on horses of pain

gather in silence and black where only skeletons

remain

in the toxical rain?



and we dance to the beat of the night

- swallow our fears for the trace of a moment

while chances retreat in the light

follow acid tears down to the river of



toxical roses - toxical roses

where do we go - straight to the overkill?



chemical weapons - greenhouse effect

industrial dragons in search of a cause

Tschernobyl - Avalon - spaces' jaws?

the old entertainer - once jester of kings

but nobody listens when now of puppets

he sings - on toxical strings



and we dance to the beat of the night

- swallow our fears for the trace of a moment

while chances retreat in the light

follow acid tears down to the river of



will someday time stand still

or can we find a way

to catch a lightning in the dark

to open the eyes of the world?
