lyrics

From off in the distance
White dust shrouds the hoofbeats
With knives in her waistcoat
She punctures the landscape
Her horse is a strange thing
Discovered at low tide
Salt water receding
This must explain their thirst
A trembling vista
The skating stones all slide
By some bizarre physics
They keep pace with her stride
Awake the knife thrower
She sleeps under velvet
You won't feel her sharp edge
'Til it's halfway through you
The air smells like sulphur
When her pale eyes open
And brighten the landscape where smoke blows across
He rides a horse across the desert
She knows what he carries
A spellbound scroll
Secrets stolen from Bazantium
Could turn person to a demon
She's got to have it!
The rider glides between two cataracts
He knows what he has but not what it does
Danger at the red rocks
Nowhere to run
She's got to have it!
With the flash of the blade
She slices the reigns
She steals the spellbound scroll
He fires three shots in the direction she ran
The scroll lofts on the breeze
The whispering wind of change
Reads out the words in a long forgotten tongue
Be careful what you wish for
This town's been a strange place
Salt water receding where smoke blows across
Behind every window
She sleeps under velvet where smoke blows across
The dust collects corners
All courtyards are empty where smoke blows across

You are about to embark on a journey into a bright and blasted landscape of words and sounds that will dwell in your subconscious and dreams for a long time to come."
