The wretched desert
takes its form,
the jackal proud and tight
In search of you
I feel my way,
through the slowest heaving night
Whatever fear invents,
I swear it make no sense
I reach out
through the border fence
Come down, come talk to me
In the swirling, curling storm of desire
unuttered words hold fast
With reptile tongue, the lightning lashes
towers built to last
Darkness creeps in like a thief
and offers no relief
Why are you shaking like a leaf?
Come on, come talk to me
Ah please talk to me
Won't you please talk to me
We can unlock this misery
Come on, come talk to me
I did not come to steal
This all is so unreal
Can't you show me how you feel now
Come on, come talk to me
Come talk to me, come talk to me
The earthly power
sucks shadowed milk
from sleepy tears undone
From nippled skin
as smooth as silk
the bugles blown as one
You lie there with your eyes half closed
like there's no-one there at all
There's a tension pulling on your face
Come on, come talk to me
Won't you please talk to me
If you'd just talk to me
Unblock this misery
If you'd only talk to me
Don't you ever change your mind
Now your future's so defined
And you act so deaf so blind
Come on, come talk to me
Come talk to me, come talk to me
