|
Sweeping winds of greyest passion |
|
Find the four who wander fated |
|
Within halls their scarlet laughter |
|
Is heard unknown from places shaded |
|
Eyes are lined with black of midnight |
|
Lips all touched in scarlet bliss |
|
Tattered velvet, lace and chains |
|
What dead have known such grace as this? |
|
Here let us lay for this age has sung its last day |
|
Under the full moon's watch (Black is the coffin in which our dreams lie) |
|
Silver remains of the time of our glory |
|
Stand where our temple fell (Black are the mirrors to which our fears fly) |
|
Pale hands flicker beneath the white lights |
|
In rhythm with the living darkness |
|
Others follow void of meaning |
|
To stand in shadows as if thoughtless |
|
Boots are laced through shining eyelets |
|
Cobwebs line the greying hall |
|
The dance goes on but pales without you |
|
As winter turns to see the fall |
|
Here let us lay for this age as sung its last days |
|
Under the full moon's watch (Black are the coffins in which our dreams lie) |
|
Silver remains of the time of our glory |
|
Stand where our temple fell (Black are the mirrors to which our fears fly) |
|
Through warmest nights of starlit skies |
|
My eyes must find another life |
|
Where once we hoped to ever be |
|
The onl ones who understood |
|
We now must face the coldest truth |
|
That precious little matters now |
|
For what we felt forever breathes |
|
Inside the silver by the sea |
