I wipe the dust from shoulders, the dust from velvet sands.
|
In dreamland of non-divine, free of all space and time.
|
I watch across the fileds, the fields of forever.
|
And as the sand turns t ostars in my eyes... I'm no longer blind.
|
Start to walk thru landscapes of frozen glass.
|
The velvet sands reflect me like a mirror.
|
My skin is pale blue but I feel my body burning with fever.
|
I see myself in the velvet sand, what am I? Human, soul or demon??
|
Embodied emotions, infinite. Eternal sleep awaits me as I am
|
|
DREAMING VELVET DREAMS, CRYING PURPLE TEARS,
|
I CHANGE. LAUGHTER TURNS TO HATE.
|
BLOOD-DROWNED ARE MY THOUGHTS. THE RAINBOW TURNS ALL RED.
|
I BURN I'M IN FIRE BURNED BY VELVET DREAMS.
|
|
I strole thru the infinite garden of neverening frost.
|
Unblessed, unpure. Here I am, my own god and master.
|
Everything is soft like velvet, but the velvet dreams obscure my mind.
|
I pick a rose so black but I am scarred by the thorns.
|
And it feels like I was in fire. Burned by velvet dreams.
|
That seems so safe...
|
Bless me. Caress me. Take away my fears.
|
Thru the pain in velvet dreams, wipe away my purple tears.
|
Burn me, turn me. Make me one with the other side.
|
Healed by the burning in velvet dreams, with the dead now i ride.
|
Embodied emotions, infinite. Sleep awaits no longer nevermore shall I...
|
|
DREAM THOSE VELVET DREAMS, CRY THOSE PURPLE TEARS.
|
NEVER, NEVERMORE. I STAND ABOUT DIVINE.
|
GOD OF NONE AND ALL. KNOWLEDGE BEYOND.
|
THE RAINBOW AND THE STARS. NEVER MORE SHALL I.
|
DREAMS THOSE VELVET DREAMS, CRY THOSE PURPLE TEARS.
|
DREAM THOSE VELVET DREAMS, CRY THOSE PURPLE TEARS.
|
NEVER, NEVERMORE. I STAND ABOUT DIVINE.
|
GOD OF NONE AND ALL. KNOWLEDGE BEYOND.
|
THE RAINBOW AND THE STARS.
|
|
Now I am the unknown that you love. God of none and all.
