A bit of moonlit indulgence
We’ve come this far
What a waste it would be
To turn back now
Never get to see
The promise of this peak
There’s a chance that is perfect
Is that not what we seek?
Moonlit indulgence
Gods behaving badly
We’re barely being bacchic
Until we've slept with the trees
Drink a tall glass of orange juice
I’d call you a lyre
But you’d keep harping on
About it, dumbfounded,
Lute the corpse
Sting me to a frenzy
With your staff of the wild
Oh, we’ve gotten so high
Your hands caressing the sky
But no, it’s never enough
There’s more just up and above
Climb through the night
Trust in this rite
No respite
Climb through the night
Trust in this rite
We’ll do fine
Conquer your spite
No end in sight
The peak’s a lie
May the ground flow red with wine
