Bauhaus - Departure Lyrics

Send "Departure" ringtone to your cell

He was in his room half awake half asleep

The walls of the room seem to alter angles

Elongating and shrinking alternately

Then twisting around completely so that

He was on the opposite side of the room

A trick of the light and too much caffeine he thought

Then came a knock on the door

And this sound was the same dark brown tone

As the wood of which the door was made

At first he thought he'd imagined it

Because it would not have been out of place

With the other strange hallucinatory events of that night

But then it came again only heavier this time

With a sense of real urgency so pulling himself up

And stepping through pools of moonlight and shadow

He made his bleary way across the room towards the door

And slowly apprehensively raised the latch

The latch became a fingertip touching his own

Energy sapping as a new form transversing the edge of his emotions

His power became his agony his power knew no bounds

Whereas before his peace have withstood it's vastness

His prerogative became an endless force of the all impossible

His final soul is flying with the contempt only

Even the legendary glance backward deep with

Eternity's stone in peace or save is already destroyed again

You cannot share the temperature is rising

Ghost and monkeys make a choice

This

This

He tried to will himself back to bed

He wanted desperately to feel the reassuring

Crisp white sheets once taken for granted

To be back home safe as houses

An' protected by walls covered in familiar patterns

But even wallpaper had become sinister to him

He remembered staring into the paisley print

And seeing a repetition of skulls

At night he would listen to the click of heels on concrete outside

And try to imagine the facial features of the unseen figure

He would always see his own face

And another realization of this prophecy rang terrible and true

For at this moment it was indeed his own feet that filled the shoes

Shoes that no man would want to wear

Into the hills then

Into the hills then to search for another searcher's closely held goals

Into the wild forest under the billowing leafs

Under the dreadful birds the singing soil

The decrepit babies the unhappy new loves

The preaching alphabetics the long lost lovers

Never to their sons safely the mothers

In fact all the guilty clouds that he will move into a playground

A sense of moonlight and shadow

All the stars touch to the cold molten sunflower fly to his middle eye

The wallpaper had become sinister to him

Alas white cold

Alas rainbow's middle infinity's destination

Another realization of this prophecy

All life's drums drink from bottles and visions blinded
