Gone away at last The search lights beg to dim In the blood of nightimes cover No human sounds within The lonely thoughts of lovers The routine hammers solid In the heads of spit and spoiled (Only) broken from contentions Of the jealous snake's recoil The lonely thoughts of lovers What if and yet to pass Satisfaction deals are over And gone away at last So strike back from the corner Hold back nuthin' more Kill your understandin' And patience nevermore Outrun the speed of light (my friend) Go hide among your thoughts The searchlights may grow dim again Your love may not be sought At last the heartache found you The silverspoon will rise And choke you black and bluer Til the stars turn from your eyes Surround yourself with sadness Surrender to the noise Of distant dirges comin' To keep you company Gone away at last.
