Turn Loose the Doves

How's the air up there with

The faithless and aborted souls

And when the worms carried it away

Did you cry, did you feel, did you see me pray?

To gods and demons all alike

To those who would lend an ear that night

Three thousand miles high

These wayward wanderers fly

Halfway to heaven

Yet a stones throw from hell

Through infinite sorrow

Soars our exquisite belle

Turn loose the doves and marvel

At their flight with fractured wings

Turn loose the doves and listen

To the mourning chorus start to sing

Anthems of loss, all for you

They are all for you

My muse, I never wanted this to fall

This to fall apart

Choke on the air up there

From the acid and reviled clouds

And when we glance down upon our shrine

There's no viol, violet and no vine

Nor rays from holy heaven bright

Sweet muse, how far have we strayed

From this guiding light?

We strayed from this light

Halfway to heaven

Yet a stones throw from hell

Through infinite sorrow

Soars our exquisite belle

Turn loose the doves and marvel

At their flight with fractured wings

Turn loose the doves and listen

To the mourning chorus start to sing

Anthems of loss, all for you

They are all for you

My muse, I never wanted this to fall

This to fall apart

Scarlet drenched and song less birds

Deliver us from the underworld

Scarlet drenched and song less birds

Deliver us from the underworld

Halfway to heaven

Yet a stones throw from hell

Through infinite sorrow

Soars our exquisite belle

Turn loose the doves and marvel

At their flight with fractured wings

Turn loose the doves and listen

To the mourning chorus start to sing

Anthems of loss, all for you

They are all for you

My muse, I never wanted

Anthems of loss, all for you

They are all for you

My muse, I never wanted this to fall

This to fall apart
