sing for me
your tune so gentle an pure
sing for me
your cold sweet melody
hush, hush, so I wont wake up
cover me
lay your white cloak on me
cover me
with your soft smoothing sheet
hush, hush, so I wont wake up
bury me
until nothing is to be seen
bury me
under your bitter bleak majesty
hush, hush, so I wont wake up

House of the Night

hear the horns calling
luring you in
so many eyes watching
as you take your steps
through the heavy blue gates
where the magic takes place
so follow the fairies
into the dream and the dark
where puppets are dancing
to the beat of your heart
when the moon is rising
they all come alive
and the dragons eye is watching
over the house of the night
hushing and whispering and songs
under tables, in windows and the halls all along
will you find all the secrets
and bravely take a look
behind hidden doors, along tesselated floors
as you take your steps
through the heavy blue gates
where the magic takes place
a mighty tower
made of spinal bones
chasing into the nightly sky
waiting for you
to climb it alone
descrying secrecy up high
chase the light
crave the night
follow the moon

Her fariy fingers reaching out
to touch and feed the earth
and she whispers wakening spells
for all the slumbering sprouts
her breath a tender, dancing breeze
warmed with golden light
to freely fill the world with ease
to bring us back to live
"oh dearest child of mine
it's time to rise and shine
delightful and devine
it's time to rise and shine"

Creature

naked and bare
dark grey skin
scrawny fingers and claws
waiting
in a deep dark pond
in a hauntig hole
shady realm of dreariness
and everlasting cold
a creeping creature
no one can see
is soundlessly rising
coming for me
when I close my eyes in silence
it's frightening presence appears
when I try to speak
it's whispering in my ear
mocking me in my existence
pulling me down
scratching, slitting my skin
wants me to drown
and while it sits on my chest
they say it's all in my head

Fall
04:38
|

|
oh, hastely we seek distraction
when we hear the call from the deep
from down the well, where fate is spun
where leads this deceptive path we run?
will we land on the other side
where we live in our sleep?
