As Sure As Your Sorrow Is Joy
(I have no fear of dying...)

In the dead of the summer
As the moon strikes the sky
You summon old soldiers
Who fade, but don't die
Your treason their hunger to cloy

You are just the crease
On the outskirts of them
And you look for release
On both sides of the hem
On the garment you cannot destroy

And I often feel like crying
But I have no fear of dying
As sure as your sorrow is joy
As sure as your sorrow is joy

My face is a blotter
My hands are a sponge
I squeeze my dreams empty
When I see what they've done
They scuttle and drag through the alloy

I've swam the emotions
I've plunged in despair
By the banks of devotion
I've had the bad air
From the spawning of submarine toy

And I often feel like crying
But I have no fear of dying
As sure as your sorrow is joy
As sure as your sorrow is joy
