Lyrics

Sundown dazzling day
Gold through my eyes
But my eyes turned within only see
Starless and bible black
Old friend charity
Cruel twisted smile
And the smile signals emptiness for me
Starless and bible black
Ice blue silver sky
Fades into grey
To a grey hope that all yearns to be
Starless and bible black
Written by: King Crimson
