Vanden Plas - Sanctimonarium

I´m watching the trains from the attic
And painting a face on the moon
By 7 a.m. he was sitting beside me
11 lines he wrote his wife before his suicide
Don´t tell me your reason my friend
I know it´s the call of the end that surrounds you
Or maybe you were just scared of life´s untold serenade

SANCTIMONARIUM
If God hates us He answers to our prayers
SANCTIMONARIUM
If God hates us He answers to our prayers

I am not in the spirit to take you with me
And I don´t want to scare you to death
I´ll sing you an ayre of the saintly transition
Please let me go instead of thee
And drink the wine of immortality
You ask for the reason my friend
It´s just the erosion of time that surrounds me
My somber street serenade tells of what I'm so afraid

SANCTIMONARIUM
If God hates us He answers to our prayers
SANCTIMONARIUM
If God hates us He answers to our prayers

You ask me - Where do we go
I tell you - Little I know - too little I know

Charon paint me a bridge into the rainbow
I´ll pay you with a bit of stardust
To lay me down inside the thantaphoric blueberryfield
I´ve called you
To be my never-ending circle
You are the answer for my searching
So tell me why you will not take me away
Not take me away

In your darkest hour, your wish was my command my friend
If you´d grant my sweet desire to be human just for one day

A wicked prayer murders innocence
In this nefarious Elysium
SANCTIMONARIUM
If God hates us He answers to our prayers

A wicked prayer murders innocence
In this nefarious Elysium
SANCTIMONARIUM
Your life feels good when death lies in the air
