Garden Of Delight – Second Language

Garden Of Delight

And in this world, no symmetry, no light
We fight each urge
We beat the demons back
The passions surge
We stretch them on the rack

In this garden of delight

Men of the cloth
For them the patterns weave a design
I envy them but that collar fits too tight
The holy shroud blindfolds each sordid sight

In this garden of delight

All for the love of love
From the hosts above we can't see
But in their name, we carry on as though
The only game in town's the one we know

In this garden of delight

Well, in the dead of night
The death of light's complete
Don't mourn the loss
Don't mourn the memory
You'll turn, you'll toss
Away your sanity

In this garden of delight
