I Am the Quartz, The Labrador & Labyrinth is a song in English
On the First of October
We felt it glide through the dark
Her Autumn was nearly over
I felt the trail of a lark
Verse 2
And watch devil makes light work
For idle hands today
For we cried white horses
When she led me astray
Verse 3
She said no ill wind will rise up no more
If you come with me
This is the last map I will send you
An armistice to flee
Chorus
And rise up Maria
And rise up Lazarus
For I am the quartz and the labrador and labyrinth
And there wasn't a cloud left in the sky
And Solomon stood steady at the cross.
Verse 4
Solomon told me to think it over
That there were rumblings from Gallilee
Across my collar bone and shoulder
And hope to die by a birch tree
Verse 5
There were murmurs in the corridors
There were rumours in trees
There was rumblings in the seaweed
There were discourse in the seas
Bridge
And rise up Maria
And rise up Lazarus
For I am the quartz and the labrador and labyrinth
And there wasn't a cloud left in the sky
And Solomon stood steady at the cross.
And I told my love with the grace of god of a ghost that made her presence known and left her plight with me with me
Verse 6
I spoke to Solomon in the dying hours
He explained the preludes to me
I felt his presence in the towers
As he stood guard by a birch tree
Verse 7
I'd went to rise up and rise up and rise against this shadow
I heard the noises of a choir
And a tear gas came from the shallows
Around my nectar neck tie wire
Bridge
And rise up Maria
And rise up Lazarus
For I am the atoms and sickle cell evangelist
And there wasn't a cloud left in the sky and Solomon stood steady at the cross.
