Pale Tortured Blue

On my naked back
A dance of the nocturnal sun
The tall grass crawls around me
In adoration bowing
Can I find you in your dark?
Can you find me in your heart?

There's a fallen statue in the wilderness
It has found its way to your dreams
Haunting the waking hours
In nights' color with eyes like rain.

The shades beseech you
My love increases you
And summer freezes you into me...
The cold fire suits you!
A pale tortured blue blistering through.

A lifeless lover was the high mountain
Where we tried to reach the stars
The moon, the ways beyond
It was the purest love of all...

I will raise a statue in the wilderness
It will find its way to your dreams
This will haunt you forever
In nights' color with eyes like rain.

Yet I collect the stars you wept
Keeping them as my own
To be lost in your eyes
For all the sadness that we kept.

And I fail to realize it's you...
The cold suits you!
A pale tortured blue blistering through.

When there's peace within myself
And everything else
A pale tortured blue blistering through.
