(edited by antichris)[00:00:12]
it was me, peering through the looking glass[00:00:20]
beyond the embrace of christ[00:00:25]
like the secret face within the tapestry[00:00:28]
like a bird of prey over the crest[00:00:32]
and she was swathed in sorrow[00:00:35]
as if born within its mask[00:00:43]
her candlelight snuffed, the icon smiled[00:01:19]
emptiness followed by her wake[00:01:24]
i could clasp her in undying love[00:01:28]
within ghostlike rapture[00:01:31]
the final word was mine[00:01:34]
she faced me in awe[00:02:09]
'twas a token of ebony colour[00:02:39]
embodied in faint vapour[00:02:47]
wandering through april's fire[00:02:54]
compelled to grasp and to hold[00:03:01]
the one that was you[00:03:06]
i will endure, hide away[00:03:41]
i would outrun the scythe[00:03:51]
glaring with failure[00:03:57]
it is a mere destiny i thought[00:04:12]
a threshold i had crossed before[00:04:17]
the rain was waving goodbye[00:06:44]
and when the night came[00:06:52]
the forest folded its branches around me[00:06:56]
something passed by, and i went into a dream[00:07:03]
she laughing and weeping at once:[00:07:11]
"take me away"[00:07:14]
i don't know how or why[00:07:29]
i'll never know when[00:07:32]
