Lost Souls on Lonesome's Way - Kayo Dot

Tavern sign swinging on its chain

Rough and worn letter-work worn away

Sea is Jupiter dreaming today

Through telescope

Inside, a mystic circumambulation

Around an empty glass

Fire electrical virtual hearthside

And we are all the virtual IT inside

So saith the prophet slumped in a corner

Drew up like madness, ghoul in its coat

He spoke with a smile that went crooked and broken

But he swallowed his bait to seek out the Lapis

Cup everlasting

The Fleece

The magnificent East

With his sleepawake eye shining

On to the quays where the airships are docked

The pirates are bats roosting in the slum eaves

And one bat got loose in a brothel

A pilot perfect and sails fill’d with gold

See the X glowing

Glowing and shining

See all the sinning it buys

So saith the ghoul draped in lies
