lyrics

Drowning in forever
Flowing choking grief
Haunting memories dulled to dust
The dark’s divine relief

To love, too frail
To no avail
In my arms so tight
To seek a sleep
In silence weep
And find this gentle night

Flesh stripped slowly bare
From holding onto thorns
And now there’s no one there
To hold her as she mourns

No hands of mine
Nor sands of time
Have ever ravaged her
As memory
Is misery
Her beauty is her curse

The jest of cruel affection
Rent from her grieving grasp
Refined as crude affliction
Benumb her bleeding heart

She beckons the dark inside
So she will have a place to hide
In fragile fear embraced
A silence shrouds her glistening face

To love, too frail
To no avail
From her arms in flight
To seek a sleep
In silence weep
Into this gentle night

Cascading down – a shadow from her eyes
Trembling – under shapeless skies
This wretched cold – drowned in doubt she lies
And heralds her demise

These hands of mine
Nor sands of time
Will ever ravage her
Her memory... her misery
