Subterranean Attic - The Harbour

Golden trees, turning pale
The whalers return from killing white whales
Seasick sailors, slackening their sails
Telling bold lies and forging tales

And all the lost churchbells do their dingdong
Sing along with everyone, you can't go wrong

Some say life is running in circles
Others say: impossible, life has never been round
Some say my vision is called nirvana
Others say my vision is pure sound

Bright thoughts and dark deeds
We're standing still at the highest speed
Muggers and smugglers baptize the blind
Who chant while they're boarding
The famous golden hind

You better read the score, if You don't know this song
Catch up with the rhythm, and strike the gong

Yesterday you went to the harbour
Where the faces shine bright in the quicksilver light
I stayed at home, you went to the ice cream parlour
You said you wanted more from live and I said: "alright"
