In shades I remain...
Death’s bitter shade calls, to keep me safe in his arms,
I will stay with him for now, while the world burns behind
The shadow of his darkness sings, a weak lullaby, a silent dirge for all to hear,
A symbol of the pain I feel, a pain so longingly deep
I turn to see death’s silent tears; the warm red mingles with my hair,
I reach to feel their warmth, that which should be sickly wet feels like dust in this place
His arms hold tight my fading form, as I mould myself to his sight
I fear his care will crumple me, his sorrow twist my minds eyes
But gently now he tends my hurt, my ache silenced by his care
Sweet and calming deaths song I hear, building as the dirge before.
Broken and tender, violent love I feel, riddled with irresistible need
To stay in death’s gray darkened dreams for run I will not ever,
Bred to be in death’s own home, by his side forevermore,
Heed his call, his wish, his tender pain, I will remain.
I will stay with him for now, while the world burns behind
The shadow of his darkness sings, a weak lullaby, a silent dirge for all to hear,
A symbol of the pain I feel, a pain so longingly deep
I turn to see death’s silent tears; the warm red mingles with my hair,
I reach to feel their warmth, that which should be sickly wet feels like dust in this place
His arms hold tight my fading form, as I mould myself to his sight
I fear his care will crumple me, his sorrow twist my minds eyes
But gently now he tends my hurt, my ache silenced by his care
Sweet and calming deaths song I hear, building as the dirge before.
Broken and tender, violent love I feel, riddled with irresistible need
To stay in death’s gray darkened dreams for run I will not ever,
Bred to be in death’s own home, by his side forevermore,
Heed his call, his wish, his tender pain, I will remain.
