Blue Gates Of Death Lyrics

Before and beyond the blue gates of death

Oh only two birds soar through the sky

Take two blackbirds crossformed in poppy fields

And sprung in the springtime of Europe's fertile years

When the rain was immaculate

Not redrose invisible

And where in the heart that beats in man

And where in the soul that beats in this heart

May we find pastures of the little shining man?

Eagle, his hand in hand

Eagle, his glass in hand

Birch, she sits there scowling

Another eagle darkens the stage

(She tells me she loves me but he always beckons)

They have reached the blue gates of death

They are at the blue gates of death

They shall go through the blue gates of death

And on the rocks the moss is everywhere

And the sky is blackblue

And it is darkening

Statues point to the sky

Birth

Earth

And dawn

And I believe

Christ is the Son of God

And I believe

Christ is His son

Her eyes are horizontal

Like her secret

There is no pain for me to feel

"Do not touch this pain of mine"

She says "it is darkened fear"

And London Bridge

Has fallen down

My mother sits in the kitchen

She's drinking Victoria gin

And she's eating gingerbread men

Two ciphers straddle the stage

Reclaim, declaim and decant

Their moves are pointless

Their promises echo through the nightCurrent 93 - Blue Gates Of Death - http://motolyrics.com/current-93/blue-gates-of-death-lyrics.html

We have all reached the blue gates of death

We are at the opening of the blue gates of death

And Christ's name is carved in stone

But the time has soaked it away

Where the rain runs to the sea

It takes moisture from the world

Where riverruns to the sea

It drags ships in it's courses

And the blue turns to green

Behind the roses

Fields and pastures

Madness is the norm

And laughing is the wine

Full garlands hang on the head of the porcupine god

Everyone reaches the blue gates of death

Everything opens

No journey is without meaning

Every road has it's end

And I shall die soon

And you shall die soon

And no luggage is carried

On the opening to the gates of death

Death is no ending

It is the beginning

I shall not take you with me

But your face rests in my heart

Your soul is part of my soul

Your love is with me always

I shall remember you

In the darkness that's to come

And flashing lights beckon

Another womb, another life

At the blue gates of death

I loved you once

I shall love you again

Do not feel pain

Nothing lasts in this world

I loved you once

I shall love you again

I loved you once

I love you again
