Splashdown Lyrics
"Halfworld"

tonic says, "just a swallow."
snaps you back like a twig
'till you 'waken a bit confused
in the shoes of a lonely fiddler
drunk at the barndance
romance exits the room
scraping strings for a fat chanteuse
and there's none to desire you
(porque manyana a lo me hor ay un entierro)
whisper, "fine," and just let it go

is nightshade a food or a poison
do you follow my reason
is reason important

fortune fled
he stumbled off the heaven's edge
sixty bottles beside the bed
magic medicine takes his easy head down the bottom
grab the root from the stem
box the compass and back again
fall in love with a spiral
(porque manyana a lo me hor ay un entierro)
where it leads only heaven knows
so persuasive and silent
(porque manyana a lo me hor ay un entierro)
like the oceans of vertigo

is nightshade a food or a poison
do you follow my reason
is reason important (at all)

potions keg
shifty gifts from the dead
drink your spirits and pray forget, how unfortunate
some are pixie led through the forest
where the time passes slow
you've forgotten to turn your coat
and now you're growing old
and reason is spinning itself into gold
and all time is frozen once reason's been sold

is nightshade a food or a poison
do you follow my reason
is reason important (at all)

(porque manyana a lo me hor ay un entierro)
(3x)

*("porque manyana a lo me hor ay un entierro" -
english translation - "because tomorrow there may be a funeral")
