Porcupine Tree - This Long Silence lyrics

A systematic killer

Returning from Madrid

Murdered Mozart in his garden

Mussolini ran and hid

He was chosen by his elders

Sitting on the shelf

They passed his heart to Satan

Who showered them with wealth

A Purple Haze crawled on the lawn

Where lonely angels played

And Shakespeare wrote of Vietnam

While a president decayed

Hollow laughter from below

Cracked the sky in two

As Manson dance inside the flames

And the yellow changed to blue

Swinging from a length of rope

Ruth Ellis blew a kiss

Merlin spoke to Norma Jean

And granted her a wish

Mark Chapman stared at fantasy

Bare wires burned his brain

As Sergeant Pepper led the band

Playing through the rain

The third eye on the surface

Opens up my mind

Twin visions in production

This long silence you will find
