The Amen Corner Lyrics

White summer
So far I have gone to see you again
Hiding your face in the palm of your hands
Finding solace in the words I do despiseYou snatch at every sound
And even though you believe
That I am shackled just within deathMemories are tainted with paleness
Crestfallen still
Those eyes, empty like a barren wellIt was the only task I wouldn't undertake
To reap the harvest that was mine
The seed that had sprung into a florid meadow
And left me helpless in your embraceThe bond we never spoke of
Once stark and enticing
Now slowly smoldering to dustThe celestial touch
From gray to blackA fathomless void enclosing
Unwritten secrets beneath the cobwebs
I can not endureAnd so I rose from my sleep
The moon turned away its face
Overture of the long, black night begins

Something you said, "Eerie circles upon the waters"Until now we have shared the same aura
My ashes within your handsMy breath in the sepulchral mound
You know that your night is my day
The final spark that blew life into me
The demon of the fall
