The Drapery Falls Lyrics

Please remedy my confusion
And thrust me back to the day
The silence of your seclusion
Brings night into all you sayPull me down again
And guide me into painI'm counting nocturnal hours
Drowned visions in haunted sleep
Faint flickering of your powers
Leaks out to show what you keepPull me down again
And guide me intoThere is failure inside
This test I can't persist
Kept back by the enigma
No criterias demanded here
Deadly patterns made my wreath
Prosperous in your ways
Pale ghost in the corner
Pouring a caress on your shoulderPuzzled by shrewd innocence
Runs a thick tide beneath
Ushered into inner graves

Nails bleeding from the struggle
It is the end for the weak at heart
Always the same
A lullaby for the ones who've lost all
Reeling inside
My gleaming eye in your necklace reflects
Stare of primal regrets
You turn your back and you walk away
Never againSpiraling to the ground below
Like Autumn leaves left in the wake to fade away
Waking up to your sound again
And lapse into the ways of misery
