Lyrics Red Light In Arcady - Beau

The white crag hides the eagle
And the eagle takes the lamb
And carries her to distant crags
From where the flight began
Like an arrow from a distant bow
She travels straight and true
And crushes from the gaping breast
The blood that runs in you

And the Mercedes coughs its way to life
And you are yesterday's child
You are entangled in the wires
You are surrounded in the fires
You are to satisfy desires
And you are young

The wicked man remembers
What most of us forget
And he can recognise deceit
Within himself, and yet
The lessons learned for history
So seemingly naïve
Are how much greater is the good
To give than to receive

And the Mercedes coughs its way to life
And you are yesterday's child
You are entangled in the wires
You are surrounded in the fires
You are to satisfy desires
And you are young

I never want to hear
You neither understand nor see
It simple spoils illusions
And all the imagery
Is ground into a powder dust
Whose trickle sets you free
Whose smoulder is the faintest
Glow red light in Arcady

And the Mercedes coughs its way to life
And you are yesterday's child
You are entangled in the wires
You are surrounded in the fires
You are to satisfy desires
And you are young
