We fell silent for a time
But we were free, like devils in the sea
All on an island of immense decay
We roamed the beaches with our eyes cast down
And seasoned veterans for all time
Were falling down all around us, like flies
So when the spiders came up on our doors
We came undone and we flew out of control
So I'm a pirate of buzzing around
I am high, oh way up in the sky
And I come crashing down to the Earth
In a blaze so very much my own
