King Crimson - The Letters

Full Album Playlist: THE LETTERS (Fripp, Sinfield) With quill and silver knife She carved a poison pen Wrote to her lover’s wife “Your husband’s seed has fed my flesh.“ As if a leper’s face That tainted letter graced The wife with choke-stone throat Ran to the day with tear blind eyes. Impaled on nails of ice And raked with emerald fire The wife with soul like snow With steady hand begins to write. “I’m still, I need no life To serve on boys and men What’s mine was yours is dead I take my leave of mortal flesh.” - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - Robert Fripp: Guitar, Mellotron, Peter’s Pedal Harmonium and sundry implements Mel Collins: Flute, Bass Flute, Saxes & Vocals Boz: Bass Guitar, Lead Vocals & Choreography Ian Wallace: Drums, Percussion & Voc
