Capricorn

The shadows fill the corners across the square 

They come a-crawling to offer shelter, to haul me in 

Without a needlepoint in the light 

And the steel to still your tongue 

The night hides a multitude of uncovered sins 



The heart beating in Capricorn, I take on a guise

Will I feel an automatic release from all this pain? 

With no movement, undiscovered, I lie in wait

And Im out of tears, out of sympathy? 

I'll make it look accidental 

And I'll leave no sign to say your life was mine 

No-one I carried just the same 

Thinner than most sinners and saints alive

So what if you're temperamental 

And Im out of tears, out of sympathy? 

So what if Im elemental
