The chamber was in confusion-all the voices shouting loud.
|
I could only just hear, a voice quite near say, "Please help me
|
through the crowd"
|
'Said if I helped her thru' she could help me too, but I could
|
see that she was wholly blind.
|
But from her pale face and her pale skin, a moonlight shined.
|
|
Lilywhite Lilith,
|
She gonna take you thru' the tunnel of night.
|
Lilywhite Lilith,
|
She gonna lead you right.
|
|
When I'd led her through the people, the angry noise began to grow.
|
She said "Let me feel the way the breezes blow, and I'll show
|
you where to go."
|
So I followed her into a big round cave, she said "They're coming
|
for you, now don't be afraid."
|
Then she sat me down on a cold stone throne, carved in jade.
|
|
Lilywhite Lilith,
|
She gonna take you thru' the tunnel of night.
|
Lilywhite Lilith,
|
She gonna lead you right.
|
|
She leaves me in my darkness,
|
I have to face my fear,
|
And the darkness closes in on me,
|
I can hear a whirring sound growling near.
|
I can see the corner of the tunnel,
|
Lit up by whatever's coming here.
|
Two golden globes float into the room
|
And a blaze of white light fills the air.
