Of Lillies And Remains Lyrics

In the marbled reception hall

I received a three band gold ring from Mark, a token of esteem

Running through ghost closet locker rooms

To hide from Peter, who has fallen to the old cold stone floor

Wheezing and emitting a seemingly endless flow of ectoplasmic white goo from ears and mouth



A wind rushes through the hall

Whistles as it breezes through the narrow slits

In the green, locked doors

I hide in one of these, number thirteen

Barely concealed but hopeful

Blackout

Blackout



I will climb this high wall in remembrance of Clancy

[ Bauhaus Lyrics are found on www.songlyrics.com ]
To regain or re-earn my life

As I died just a flicker of an eyelid ago

The wall has many holes and many foot pieces to fasten to

The wall is dangerous and this is my penance

My penance and my task



I did it once and they wondered

Yet I needed to go once more around

Up breathtakingly across rigidly

Down easily and foolishly



I endeavored again to climb the wall in vain

And capture back my chain of lilies and remains

Of lilies and remains

Lilies and remains
