White Ape Songtext
von Christina Rosenvinge

Iron bull against the sky
"Blue of noon" of Georges Bataille
Tell the story of the eye
Dead man comes

Ladies in their armour bright
Ride upon their apes of white
Sex and death wait in the night
For dawn to come

I don′t know
But I want to know why

Sunbleached pictures in my kitchen
Rapture me with their seduction
Prostrate to their prostitutions
In my dreams


In my bed of snow and ivory
Grows a rose so red and firey
Made of gold and deadly irony
Love and death

I don't know
But I want to know why

Feeding on the wounded
And their shrunken shriveled hearts
When will I lose my appetite?
It′s just confusion
In their drunk and desperate arms
Is that fear or is that pride?
You can lose your way in their eyes

Hide yourself in leaves of lovers
Paper flowers, names and numbers
Then you never can discover
The name of love

I don't know
But I want to know why
