You Threw It at Me Like Stones

Lyrics

I crossed into Europe
 With the same urgent dreams of home
 I soaked my skin in the wine of sin
 Under the fountains of Rome
 Saw through all the feigned bravery
 And your love was but a sadness
 Coming over me
 And with a fearless heart
 I fell apart
 Who will join me in this solitude now?
 Is my penance over?
 From the red dungeons of Naples
 To the white cliffs of Dover
 I will lay and I'll betray
 For I pine for what is mine
 I was made for decay
 I turn wine into brine
 I'm the sacrifice of spring
 As seen though the dead mayfly's wing
 I'm the ideal soon sparkles
 A beauty turned to harshness
 ♪
 And I'll reap
 But now all my anger
 Lies scattered within me
 How to father the new race?
 You threw it at me like stones
 All this praise
 And just like me you were taking
 As much pleasure
 In making this promise
 As in breaking it
 Just a little later
 Who will join me in this solitude now?
 Is my penance over?
 From the red dungeons of Naples
 To the white cliffs of Dover
 I will slay and I'll betray
 For I pine for what is mine
 I was made for decay
 I turn wine into brine
 I'm the sacrifice of spring
 As seen through the dead mayfly's wing
 I'm the ideal soon sparkles
 A beauty turned to harshness
