Marcus Knapp - Melancholytron Dances at Sundown (The Elegant Way) Lyrics

He figures through the grain and fog
The words have worn off all the dials
He never tells you where he goes
He likes to kick cans down the long road
Just like the photograph

The circles spiral his intent
The sparks shoot dancing silhouettes
Down past the ponds is where he stands
Amidst the sputters, whirs
He mutters when he says

I move to soothe an ancient curse
I walk to quench an endless thirst

Quiet! This is where I eat
Silent! This is where I sleep

The kingdom of the shade

I'll meet you right beyond the glade
I'll hang a lantern on the post to show the way

I move to soothe an ancient curse
I walk to quench an endless thirst

I'll meet you right beyond the glade
I'll hang a lantern on the post to show the way
I'll meet you right beyond the glade
I'll pray your star will never fade

While we search for the elegant way

And we turn to the elegant way
We all move on the elegant way
And we search for the elegant way
And I search for the elegant way
