I'm forgetting
where I come from
lost in a mystery
of everything long gone

debris in the shade
the sun's too bright
burdens mount behind
she dreamed of a well
in a lake of dust and
the heavenly parade
cast out some eyes turned
wishing to betray
a coldness total everyone has
turned their heads away

so when I go
you won't see me
when I go
you'll scream and seeth
when I go
take some solace back
cos dust is meaningless
until rain...

rain in the theatre the
speaker knew so well
drenching every word
with love that greyness can't dispell and
breathing life into the cracks
of aged moonscapes far and wide
our cataclysm sings and dances
under this peyote trance

so when I go
you won't see me
when I go
you'll scream and seeth
when I go
take some solace back
cos dust is meaningless
a broken track

I'm forgetting
where I come from
lost in a mystery
of everything long gone
I'm forgetting
where I come from
lost in a mystery
of everything long gone

so when I go
you won't see me
when I go
you'll scream and seeth
when I go
take some solace back
cos dust is meaningless
a broken track
A song? Me? At my age? With my reputation? Are they quite mad?
