                                 To a Reason
                          (Words by Arthur Rimbaud)

                        Your finger strikes the drum,
                         dispersing all its sounds,
                           And new harmony begins.

                      Your step is the rise of new men,
                             their setting out.

                          Your turn away your head:
                                  New Love!
                          You turn your head again:
                                  New Love!

                   "Alter our fates, destroy our plagues,
                            Beginning with Time,"
                             sing the children.
                              They beg of you:
                            "Make out of anything
                   The stuff of our fortunes and desires."

                              Come from always,
                              you will go away
                                 everywhere.

                               Victim of Stars
                          (Words by David Sylvian)

                   Words are blinded and the bows released
                     lights tiny arrows pierce the moon
                  I turned the tallow in the hand of sleep
                    A victim of stars for want of a room

                     I raised the boat in a sea of sound
                                 Astonished
                            Absolutely spellbound

                    A hungry heart in the house of bread
                     stoned in anger at the garden fence
                      Hung from elms and shot with lead
                      A victim of stars without defence

                     I raised the boat in a sea of sound
                                 Astonished
                           Absolutely spellbound.

                                 Final Text
                          (Words by David Sylvian)

                                  The Crux
                                  the stone
                                  the heart
                                 the hearth
                                  the home
                                   Blinded
                             In search of stars

                                  Thereness
                                   Nearly
                              Vastly invisible
                              unsensed, unseen
                           troubled and troubling
                                   Nothing

                                   A coat
                                   A hood
                                The hooded I
                            Under a tallow moon.
