Theft of Empress and Her Bounty

I awoke to the world as it was- Masquerade cascade Hitting pavement to spread Greasy wheels or carnival games that churn with the EYE Let me look closer, I see a stolen portrait and your fertile limbs unwinding i pause- Listening to what was not said Before long, back on the grind Sweating tickets and ribbons As the quotas always climb Soon I will see The Record of Time Now it is easier to drift Your passion eclipsed My mischief I've searched for a girl like you To close the tomb of time Resurrecting the I of Atlantis Take me to your dark room I won't dodge the shattered glass Love is whole Wholesome and healthy Strangers cast a furtive eye They know what I did to you Under October's crescent moon
