And Fires Burn On The Sea





Now is the time for your loving, dear, and the time for your company. Now when the light of reason fails and fires burn on the sea. Now in this age of confusion I have need for your company.
For I am a wild and a lonely child, and the son of an angry land. Now with the high wars raging I would offer you my hand. For we are the children of darkness and the prey of a foul command.

It's once I was free to go roaming in the wind of the springtime mind. Once the clouds I sailed upon were sweet as lilac wine. Why are the breezes of summer, dear, enlaced with a grim design?
Now is the time for your loving, dear, and the time for your company. Now when the light of reason fails and fires burn on the sea. Now in this age of confusion I have need for your company.
