The Russian Futurists - A Mind's Dying Verse (The Solitary Stone) lyrics

From towers and trees And churning seas Controlling nature's will From your window sill Past the gla** The sun won't last And if you had your way They'd all be dismal days We'd stay inside Like you and hide And wish that things would change From behind window panes But grab the reigns And nurse those pains Because many years have past And your still stuck in last Initials carved in trees Representing you and me Are now lost And just washed Out like stones into the sea And boxes full of bones Resting under polished stones Represent A fallen soldier Left to die at war alone From the start your heart was cursed And the wine has made it worse And sixteen years Of captured tears Have formed a mind's dying verse It's a perversion of the arts And young men's hearts An abomination Of creation Tearing brilliant minds apart It's carved in bark Circled with hearts It's a testament To the love you've spent You cross it out When new loves sprout Or when they come to bloom; You're leaving wooden tombs To leave a mark Of hearts you've sparked And turned to raging flames Until you're feelings change Now douse them fast But leave the ash Because it's a blackened pit That they won't forget Initials carved in trees Representing you and me Are now lost And just washed Out like stones into the sea And boxes full of bones Resting under polished stones Represent A fallen soldier Left to die at war alone From the start your heart was cursed And the wine has made it worse And sixteen years Of captured tears Have formed a mind's dying verse It's a perversion of the arts And young men's hearts An abomination Of creation Tearing brilliant minds apart Boxes of bones And polished stones Are all that we have left To commemorate the d**hs Of child and man And life's cruel hand Has tightened up it's grip On your sinking ship Now flowers are left Where you now rest; It's in a field alone A solitary stone It cracks and splits And the world forgets And goes about it's day In the usual way
