The bulb flashes
We are nude
In the most important photograph ever taken
Frozen in time
Before the mirror of the void
Glass eyes are breaking
The aperture opens
Shutter flaps flutter out light
Like blinding doves
Against the backdrop of the burnt carcass of the phoenix
Consciousness is rising
Heaven goes silent
Rain comes
Full of mystery and nostalgia
Lucifer
At work in the world
Beating down
On familiar corners
In summer we left New York penniless
I gathered stoned from the vineyard
You took clay from the cliffs
I'll make a deal with you
The angel never attacks
You die first
Go towards the light
We are nude
In the most important photograph ever taken
Frozen in time
Before the mirror of the void
Glass eyes are breaking
The aperture opens
Shutter flaps flutter out light
Like blinding doves
Against the backdrop of the burnt carcass of the phoenix
Consciousness is rising
Heaven goes silent
Rain comes
Full of mystery and nostalgia
Lucifer
At work in the world
Beating down
On familiar corners
In summer we left New York penniless
I gathered stoned from the vineyard
You took clay from the cliffs
I'll make a deal with you
The angel never attacks
You die first
Go towards the light
