Casino Death

Ancient lives, your years so wise, they conspired to let me go All that time, a fine line, from a child to a sage One night sent me right from your bed to that cage Born in palms, lost at sea, a love that came but could not be I sat thinking about all the lives we could have led, touching with Such savage love but feeling only fleeting in a neon way Oh but, what use to adjectify the sea-salt summer sky? when You'll climb back up to your banyan dream and fully deny the day Sattva love don't get us thrills, in a dive bar crowd and a town that kills By the oceanside, we've lived too long, but that's all past us now Oh, and what a world we dreamed in the stolen acts of night Summer should have burnt us both alive
