Текст песни Cinders (Home From the Ball) - David Harley

Strange landscape
Of soda lights
Blank windows
City nights
The Lord of Revels folded up
The streetcorner faces
The small hours swallowed whole
And Cinders hurries home from the ball

Cinders you're the saddest song I've sung
Barely grown, aching and alone
Fingers fumbled numbly for the key
To fit that Bluebeard's door
And she wondered, is that all

She lets herself in
From the cold into the cold
Creeps up creaking stairs
And hopes that no-one calls
And still the war drags on
But there was fresh blood spilt tonight
