Gambit of Night (extended) Songtext
von Dirt Poor Robins

The moon gleams dimly
Whispers thinly a
Crescent smile, the siren′s wile
Ordained or wild?
The gambit of night

The sun looms larger
A scolding father
His scornful light a sparkling blight
And scalding blithe
Oh where is the night?


From the shade of trees
Pleading reverently
Questions posed, a quest betrothed
Through forest strewn cathedral tunes
A puzzled truth
To mend in the night

To the edge you've wandered
Drawn by this hunger
Beauty, pain here one the same
Ransom or bane?
The gambit of night

Gambit of night
Gambit of night
