Lost Carcosa

Along the shore the cloud waves break The twin suns sink beneath the lake The shadow lengthen In Carcosa

Strange is the night where black stars rise And strange moons circle through the skies But stranger still is Lost Carcosa

Songs that the Hyades shall sing Where flap the tatters of the King Must die unsung in Dim Carcosa

Song of my soul, my voice is dead Die thou, unsung, as tears unshed Shall dry and die in Lost Carcosa
