Lyrics Green iris Algiers

Green iris


Whispered a name
No one remembers
One faints like a song
On a lyre
Another while breathing out
Had the sweet smile
Of a young angel
Coming back
Through the twigs
And dark foliage
I see their eyes sparkle
- Victor Hugo “Fantômes”
In your gaze
I’m undone
How?
I wonder what went wrong
End of days
Brings us home
Exegesis
It just drags on
I hear the fates sing their song
Blithely whispering
I’m not afraid
Sing your song
And then tear me away
All light will fail
In the morning
Won’t you tell me
How we’ll fall
In cosmic fire
Or sudden war
Your green iris
It sees it all
Because I see your gaze
When they sing their song
And they blithely whispering
I’m not afraid
Sing your song
And then tear me away
Here come the saints
It ain’t like nothing you can imagine
The ringing clangor of one hundred and forty thousand
And four
If you paid attention by now you should know the story
It’s the reclaiming of power in glory
It’s the SOUND you knew just
Wasn’t there
And alight so bright that no one
Can bear it
So it changes your spirit
And bares your natural soul

Thank you because you correct this lyrics
 
The lyrics GREEN IRIS of ALGIERS is also present in the album Shook (2023)
