lyrics

He was the man in the velvet coat
And he was the man that wished the world
Turn its pretty little face
At his gorgeous disgrace

The love found itself drowned in the red wine
And the bitter touched his tongue
For the bitter of his love
while the substance came elusive

Is this the sanctuary
Of the shameful day

As his vanity shattered over his hands
In that broken mirror he saw the same reflection:
The same man who found such beauty
In his own glossed eyes
And those of others

“Till Christ call forth the dead
In silence let him lie
No need to waste the foolish tear
Or heave the windy sigh
The man had killed the thing he loved
And so he had to die”*

As his vanity shattered over his hands
In that broken mirror he saw the same reflection:
The same man who found such beauty
In his own glossed eyes
And those of others

*From “The Ballad of Reading Gaol” section VI by Oscar Wilde
