Epyllion

Beneath the rising and setting sun
Upon the ocean glittering strong
An artist's landscape fantasy
A real life beauty, not false imagery

From the waterfalls, and then moving on
Delirious and drunk, quite simply from
Nature's astounding pieces of living art
From sea to sea, the mountains call me on

In the sands of time I saw
Buried beneath years of dust
An old familiar face I thought I'd lost
I see her haunted smile and I carry on

It's the nature of the beast
To love to be diseased
In your eyes I saw an ocean
And you sparkled like the sun

Swimming deeper into an ocean
Where your blue eyes draw me in
So far from places I've never been
Deep into the darkness I see within

Swift as currents, that strongly rage
I hold a key that unlocks your cage
But where is the door, it is hidden
From my sight, seeking night vision

Sparkling clear like champagne fantasies
Waiting to be clear of my ugly obcenities
Foresight never took hold my empty heart
Maybe together we can make a new start

It's the nature of the beast
To love to be diseased
In your eyes I saw an ocean
And you sparkled like the sun

I'd love to free you, for all time
Love to unlock the secrets, of your mind
I'd love to love you, for all time
But I'm afraid to be another parasite
Could I be another parasite
Afraid I am another f---ing parasite!!

It's the nature of the beast
To fall in love with this disease
In my eyes shines a gentle glimmer
And in my soul you spark release

Reap the fruit of your labor...
Nature of the beast...

Reap the fruit of your labor...
Nature of the beast... (slightly fading)

Reap the fruit of your labor...
Nature of the beast... (fading more)
