| [00:35.220] |
The moon, she hangs like a cruel Portrait |
| [00:38.680] |
soft winds whisper the bidding of trees |
| [00:42.430] |
as this tragedy starts with a shattered glass heart |
| [00:46.250] |
and the Midnightmare trampling of dreams |
| [00:50.010] |
But oh, no tears please |
| [00:56.080] |
Fear and pain may accompany death |
| [00:59.390] |
But it is desire that shepherds its certainty |
| [01:04.010] |
as we shall see...... |
| [01:09.800] |
|
| [01:11.670] |
She was divinity's creature |
| [01:14.640] |
That kissed in cold mirrors |
| [01:17.150] |
A Queen of Snow... |
| [01:20.080] |
Far beyond compare |
| [01:21.830] |
Lips attuned to symmetry |
| [01:23.930] |
Sought her everywhere |
| [01:25.810] |
Dark liquored eyes |
| [01:27.440] |
An Arabian nightmare |
| [01:29.330] |
|
| [01:31.370] |
She shone on watercolours |
| [01:33.200] |
Of my pondlife as pearl |
| [01:38.540] |
Until those who couldn't have her |
| [01:40.620] |
Cut her free of this world |
| [01:42.660] |
|
| [01:43.360] |
That fateful Eve when... |
| [01:46.050] |
The trees stank of sunset and camphor |
| [01:50.140] |
Their lanterns chased phantoms and threw |
| [01:53.650] |
An inquisitive glance, like the shadows they cast |
| [01:57.480] |
On my love picking rue by the light of the Moon |
| [02:01.760] |
|
| [02:02.200] |
Putting reason to flight |
| [02:04.190] |
Or to death as their way |
| [02:06.930] |
They crept through woods mesmerised |
| [02:09.490] |
By the taffeta ley |
| [02:11.510] |
Of her hips that held sway |
| [02:14.540] |
Over all they surveyed |
| [02:16.220] |
Save a mist on the rise |
| [02:17.810] |
(A deadly blessing to hide) |
| [02:21.800] |
Her ghost in the fog |
| [02:24.470] |
|
| [02:25.500] |
They raped and left... |
| [02:26.670] |
(Five men of God) |
| [02:29.320] |
...Her ghost in the fog |
| [02:34.680] |
|
| [02:35.320] |
Dawn discovered her there |
| [02:37.240] |
Beneath the Cedars stare |
| [02:39.260] |
Silk dress torn, her raven hair |
| [02:41.050] |
Flown to Gown, Her beauty bared |
| [02:42.880] |
Was starred with frost, I knew her lost |
| [02:44.850] |
I wept 'til tears crept back to prayer |
| [02:46.300] |
|
| [02:48.090] |
She'd sworn me vows in fragrant blood |
| [02:50.780] |
"Never to part |
| [02:52.000] |
Lest jealous heaven stole our hearts" |
| [02:54.050] |
|
| [02:54.590] |
Then this I screamed |
| [02:56.120] |
"Come back to me. for |
| [02:58.300] |
I was born in Love with thee |
| [02:59.690] |
So why should fate stand inbetween?" |
| [03:03.220] |
|
| [03:09.080] |
And as I drowned her gentle curves |
| [03:10.890] |
With Dreams unsaid and final words |
| [03:12.780] |
I espied a gleam trodden to Earth |
| [03:14.750] |
The Church bell tower key... |
| [03:28.120] |
|
| [03:31.280] |
The village mourned her by the by |
| [03:34.920] |
For she'd been a witch |
| [03:36.790] |
Their men had longed to try |
| [03:40.420] |
And I broke under Christ seeking guilty signs |
| [03:44.430] |
My tortured soul on ice |
| [03:58.430] |
|
| [03:58.830] |
A Queen of snow |
| [04:01.240] |
Far beyond compare |
| [04:03.130] |
Lips attuned to Symmetry |
| [04:05.010] |
Sought her everywhere |
| [04:07.630] |
Trappistine eyes |
| [04:08.710] |
An Arabian nightmare |
| [04:11.080] |
|
| [04:12.230] |
She was Erzulie possessed |
| [04:14.360] |
Of a milky white skin |
| [04:19.830] |
My porcelain Yin |
| [04:21.750] |
A graceful Angel of sin |
| [04:24.130] |
|
| [04:26.260] |
And so for her... |
| [04:27.660] |
The breeze stank of sunset and camphor |
| [04:31.510] |
My lantern chased her phantom and blew |
| [04:34.910] |
Their chapel ablaze and all locked into a pain |
| [04:39.130] |
Best reserved for judgement that their bible |
| [04:41.540] |
construed... |
| [04:42.940] |
|
| [04:43.350] |
Putting reason to flight |
| [04:45.180] |
Or to flame unashamed |
| [04:47.910] |
I swept from cries mesmerised |
| [04:50.830] |
By the taffeta ley |
| [04:52.850] |
Of her hips that held sway |
| [04:55.490] |
Over all those at bay |
| [04:57.340] |
Save a mist on the rise |
| [04:59.360] |
A final blessing to hide |
| [05:03.080] |
Her ghost in the fog |
| [05:06.490] |
|
| [05:06.680] |
And I embraced |
| [05:07.970] |
Where lovers rot... |
| [05:10.550] |
Her ghost in the fog |
| [05:15.060] |
|
| [05:25.480] |
Her ghost in the fog |
