Unbalanced Pieces

[Verse 1]
The sky is red
Clouds are grey
And copper moon
One day I'll tell you
The threats are veiled, snow-blind at first
Unfurl the sails
For heavens blue
Or dark uncertain waters

[Chorus 1]
Gone
Now carry on through violent seasons
I call you mother, mother, mother in vain
Absent chain
The twilight's bleeding
And the playing board has two unbalanced pieces

[Verse 2]
No word is said
Castle grey and Sunday soon
One day I'll kill you
The raining sheets batter the ground
Unroll the streets
And walk along on high uncertain wires

[Chorus 2]
Gone
Now carry on through seasick seasons
I'm crawling mother, mother, mother in vain
Absent frame
The twilight's kneeling
And the chessboard still has two unbalanced pieces

[Chorus 3]
Gone
Now carry on through violent seasons
I call you mother, mother, mother in vain
Absent chain
The twilight's bleeding
And the playing board has two unbalanced pieces

[Chorus 4]
Gone
Now carry on through seasick seasons
I'm crawling mother, mother, mother in vain
Absent frame
The twilight's kneeling
And the chessboard still has two unbalanced pieces
