  • We gave ourselves into the night
    And we counted time a painted illusion
    And my heart was an empty box
    The tide beat against

    For a silver saucer
    For a silver saucer
    For a silver saucer
    For a silver saucer
    For a golden penny my heart was betrayed
    Now in this steel trap place I've made
    I escape

    Peach velvet sky
    I can see a
    Peach velvet sky
    Crimson violet night
    I can see a
    Peach velvet sky

    I stitched myself into your heart
    I thread my needle by sister North Star
    And I missed your quiet hands
    Their tiny weight

    For the anniverse days
    For the birthdays
    For the High and Holy days
    The lonely days
    The cold that rolled and rolled me in the dark
    The silent night when I embarked
    I escaped

    Peach velvet sky
    I can see a
    Peach velvet sky
    Crimson violet night
    I can see a
    Peach velvet sky

    Peach velvet sky
    I can see a
    Peach velvet sky
    Crimson, violent night
    I can see a
