lengsel - coat of arms lyrics

[words: john robert, music: tor magne and lengsel]

horrific death, you are closing in on me
circling silently towards the centre of the earth
the rails lead the way, night and day
black tracks ahead
i keep my eyes on you
keep you in sight from a distance
and join in the carousel movements
afraid, awed
beholding the ghost-like smoke
i grow tired as the weary wheels go round
feel sick as the smelly smog surrounds me
i droop like snowdrops and wither
wait for your horrid hands to extend
and touch my white-stained arms of love
