Hollow Sputnik

She came to me
Inside a sailing fortress
Speaking tongues
I’ve never heard before
She looked at me
Her eyes were filled with sorrow
A girl like that you’ll find nevermore

She keeps her love inside a box

And so we placed her back at the sea
So she could sail away from me
Send her back to her lover
To fulfill her destiny

Her hair was just like fire
Burning in the snow
A dress cut out
From clouds so high above
Her precious lips
Looked all covered in blood
A goodbye kiss
To the one that damned her

She kept her love inside a box

So far away yet I could see
The tears that flowed out from the seams
I saw the roof lit on fire
I saw her image from within

And so we placed her back at the sea
So she could sail away from me
Send her back to her lover
To die where no one else could see
