A Siren Song To A Shipwreck

It was the hour of the wolf, I could tell by the cannon fire
Stealing victory from the jaws of desire
That time just before sunrise when there's no-one around
And the sky begins to brighten and the world is full of sorrow

I'm staring into the abyss
Somewhere between oblivion and bliss
I never wanted this
Somewhere between oblivion and bliss
I'm standing on the precipice
Somewhere between oblivion and bliss
I never wanted this
Somewhere between oblivion and bliss

I can't remember the last time that I took a breath
You drink till you're blind and you trample your problems to death
A medallion of Saint Bernadette hangs 'round your neck
A siren song to a shipwreck

I'm staring into the abyss
Somewhere between oblivion and bliss
I never wanted this
Somewhere between oblivion and bliss
I'm standing on the precipice
Somewhere between oblivion and bliss
I never wanted this
Somewhere between oblivion and bliss
I never wanted this
Somewhere between oblivion and bliss
