Slur Lyrics - Singles - Coil

Roman land 

Of Roman sands 

And Roman sons. 

As I watch the sun 

sink down 

On the bloodred edge 

Of the bloodred town 

There are shadows 

for sale 

On the edge of town 

At the edge of the night 

Is a darkness seen 

From the side 

of the light 

(From the side 

of the night). 

And the winds 

blow round 

this sleeping town 

This sleeping town 

This Roman land 

Of Roman sands 

And Roman sons. 

And it seems to me 

That when I 

close my eyes 

All the lights in the world 

Go out 

And the night 

passes by 

And you whisper to me 

A thousand lies 

I stare in surprise 

Towards the desert's 

warm black 

And the desert stirs 

And the desert stares 

back 

With a thousand eyes 

Piercing eyes 

Ancient eyes 

And I ask my lover 

"Do you know 

Where the desert roses 

bloom and grow?"
