Estuary of Dreams

by Eunuchs

lyrics

A hatchling for slaughter
A lamb for the altar of industry's rituals of luxury
I took you, I fed you raised in the dark and the mildew
A basement estuary
The world turns you've grown now
Slipped through my hands and out
To the channel that runs through the town
The crocodile came to my bed again and said "what have you done?" and what could I do
A death roll claiming the lives of the dignitaries wives and the children disguised by the reeds

Oh rose of exile
Campsie crocodile
Stranded it's all for naught
One for all
You for me

River weeps
Liars creep
Factories leak
And he's the last of the swimmers
Rolling in cyanide

River weeps
Liars creep
Factories leak
And you're just hunters of lost pride
Idiot boys playing playing playing

The crocodile came to my bed again and spoke but no words came out
A stillness fell like the night on the channel that pines for your company
The only ripples from wind

Oh rose of exile
Campsie crocodile
Stranded it's all for naught
One for all
And you for me
Side by side in the canal
Through the cries of hunting parties
I love you
I love you
