Interlude I (The Ripe & Ruin) Songtext
She-she-she-she only ever-ver-ver-ver-ver walks to-to count-count her steps
18 strides and she stops to abide by the law that she herself has set
That 18 steps is one complete set
And before the next nine right and nine left
She looks up-up at the blue and whispers to all of the above
"Don′t let me drown, don't breathe alone
No kicks, no pangs, no broken bones
Never let me sink, always feel at home
No sticks, no shanks, and no stones"
Never leave it too late
Always enjoy the taste of the great-great-great grey world of hearts
As all dogs everywhere bark-bark-bark-bark
It′s worth knowing
Like all good fruit, the balance of life is in the ripe and ruin
18 strides and she stops to abide by the law that she herself has set
That 18 steps is one complete set
And before the next nine right and nine left
She looks up-up at the blue and whispers to all of the above
"Don′t let me drown, don't breathe alone
No kicks, no pangs, no broken bones
Never let me sink, always feel at home
No sticks, no shanks, and no stones"
Never leave it too late
Always enjoy the taste of the great-great-great grey world of hearts
As all dogs everywhere bark-bark-bark-bark
It′s worth knowing
Like all good fruit, the balance of life is in the ripe and ruin
