We are lost now, in love's forgotten town,
We are lost now, in love's forgotten town,
We are lost now, in love's forgotten town,
I am sleeping, a sleep of my own design,
I am sleeping, a sleep of my own design,
No head, no hands, no feet,
No head, no hands, no feet,
We are lost now, in love's forgotten town.
Erase yourself, if you truly desire,
Erase yourself, if you truly desire,
A seed, dissolving, blooms a rose in fire,
Self-lost, in self, yet rising ever higher,
Self-lost, in self, ascending ever higher.
Before fate's decree,
Before fate's decree,
God himself asks the slave, "What is your plea?"
Self-lost, in self, a stolen decree,
Then, Love ignites,
Then, Love ignites,
We are lost now, in love's forgotten town.
Bury your veil, a river of tears now flow,
Where dogs bark and spit, let your spirit grow,
Rise, and perform the prayer, the true show,
In prayer, from the heights, take flight and go,
Night of the lion, the day of the slumber,
The day of the lion, the day of the slumber,
Leave the path of the butcher, a life to remember,
Though the king rides high, you’ll find your number,
Give up the master's wrath, though they whip you with a hundred lashes,
Rise, Bulleh, go and appease your Beloved,
Rise, Bulleh, go and appease your Beloved,
This is the way of the dogs, this is the way of the dogs,
Forget, O friend, both worlds are one,
Forget, O friend, both worlds are one,
There is no other good,
There is no other good,
There is no other good,
There is no other good,
We are lost now, in love's forgotten town,
We are lost now, in love's forgotten town,
Love's forgotten town,
Love's forgotten town.
