Irene

Merciful morning
Come over the stains of the night
Everything's broken
The last star just fell from the sky
And hit you near the eye

I can see you through the hourglass
As you're trying to hide again
On this merciful morning
Don't you know it will never change

It's stationary
It's ordinary
And mean

Where have you been, Irene
Did you say the wrong thing
Where have you been, Irene
In your fall did I hear you scream
Or will you die in silence

Flowers on the floor
Demons at your door
You're reaching for the saint
When you know he will never change

That scar on your face
It's the devil's embrace
It's mean

Where have you been, Irene
And was it unforeseen
Where have you been, Irene
In your fall did I hear you scream
Or will you die in silence

Where have you been, Irene
No way out of this ravine
Where have you been, Irene
Will you run from the fire dream
From this endless violence

Where have you been, Irene
Uncover your wounds so we can see
Where have you been, Irene
In your fall did I hear you scream
Or will you die in silence
