Moments like these never last
Let’s return girl, to the sundown
All that remains is to forfeit (ète)
All that remains is to ascend
Turn and turn and turn around
Those vines under your skin, profound
You will whisper and you will lie - You will cackle and you will cry
Witches ponder and witches bite
There won’t be buildings to exalt (olte)
The travels and the sacrifice
Ain’t no place in this brand-new world
For the one who carved its cradle (éïdeul)
Turn and turn and turn around
Those vines under your skin, profound
You will whisper and you will lie - You will cackle and you will cry
Witches ponder and witches bite
Reflections claw along the walls / Voices raising - sirens wailing
The screams - the war - beyond the door / I have to leave, the neons call
She’s always deaf, the sorceress / The likes of ‘em will always burn /
She’s always blind, the sorceress – the sorceress
You lead me farther than I could / You lead me through stark expanses
You lead me yonder my heartbeat / You lead me to what I can’t reach
Leave my city, leave what’s been / The smell of tar, of caffeine
Your deeds will ebb into the void / You do not speak our dreams no more
Turn and turn and turn around
Those vines under your skin, profound
You will whisper and you will lie - You will cackle and you will cry
Witches ponder and witches bite
