As the time has come for me to leave this world
|
How I longed to probe into the guarded mystery
|
Had to realise the best kept secret was my life itself
|
Beware, you sages, far too wise: The last joke's on you!
|
|
I've seen the light in the dawning day
|
I've seen love - in a burning haze
|
|
Don't you tell me I squandered this precious life
|
For much too long I listened to your insidious voice
|
Deafened by fear, blinded by hate: You missed the point
|
I might die but I die laughing straight into your face
|
|
I've tasted blood on your lips
|
Divine magenta - heavenly
|
|
No wise books can replace a single word you've said
|
No dreams were sweeter than those I dreamed in your arms
|
No drug did take me higher than the scent of you
|
No fire be as fervent as your desire
|
|
Where ever you are, where ever you roam
|
For you I sing the sweetest song
|
|
Salve Regina
|
Quae pervia caeli porta manes et stella maris
|
Vita dulcedo et spes nostra, Salve
|
Ave Regina Caelorum
|
Ave Domina Daemonum
|
Salve Radix ex qua mundo lux est orta, Decora
|
|
You call my name
|
You walk amongst the late
|
The seventh veil left at rainbow's end
|
We're passing time like ferries crossing a stream
|
Into the underworld: Cerridwen's domain
|
|
Come aside and cry for this is the spring of tears
|
Weep for the child inside gone from you
|
Died away: No place in the upper world
|
But who will nourish our dreams
|
When laughter expires?
|
|
To some a nightmare, to some a dream
|
The day will end for some, as the night begins for one
|
|
"Come aside the fires of my tribe, find shelter here"
|
The wise woman takes the bone and points at me:
|
Who am I to be?
|
Not a single word trips from my lips so I start to dance
|
Whilst the dark crone holds my soul, I lay down my mask
|
|
See my heart is in your hands
|
See my wings are broken
|
|
The fire starts to burn my flesh to the bone
|
Trial by flames I stand all alone: My guide's disappeared
|
Naked and blind the new born god is dressed in innocence
|
"Shall I dare or stay unconscious?
|
Who'll be telling me wrong from right?"
|
|
As shadows fall like leaves in September wind
|
We're trying to keep us warm with the ashes of our memories
|
But when nightmares call, we don't persist at all
|
Retrospective dreams collide
|
stranded on that wasteland's shore
|
|
As shadows fall
|
And will my name be called?
|
Up on the mountain bare
|
In black cloth dressed and desperate fear
|
|
As shadows fall
|
Silence of remembrance fades
|
I dreamed we once held hands but I awake
|
As shadows fall
|
|
In nomine Magnae Deae Nostrae
|
Introibo ad altarem
|
Dominae Inferae
|
Quae regit terram
|
|
I've tasted blood without tongue
|
My skin shed at your feet
|
|
"Am I to sacrifice?" I asked the all-knowing crone
|
"Until you understand you'll die!" the crone replied
|
This might be heaven, might be hell - no difference I see
|
"Salvation can't be found in here..." I sadly sighed
|
|
Where is the sun? Who'll light my day?
|
Where are the stars? Who'll guide my way?
|
|
I try to hide but inexorably
|
a voice like thunder coming up
|
And as the midnight sun
|
drowns the world in velvet light
|
I call your name through the ashes of time
|
Of all transgressions I can't take no more
|
Deliverance, your love, is all I implore
|
|
As flowers burn I hear the wolves return...
|
|
At this desolate place
|
Lost in time and lost in space
|
Remembrance of a golden age
|
In these days of yore: A magic spell
|
Was it your name I called?
|
I'll try again...
|
And like a dream
|
Your loving face
|
I touch your golden skin just for a while
|
Entwined we fly through the blackest skies
|
You smile, I take your hand - back home again!
|
|
Osculetur me, osculo oris sui
|
Quia meliora sunt ubera tua vino
|
Fragrantia unguentus optimis
|
Oleum effusum nomen tuum
|
Ideo adolescentulae dilerexunt te
|
Trahe me post te
|
|
As flowers burn I hear the wolves return...
|
