Lyrics

The past cuts deep
Through the old dreams
Crimson sheets
Her eyes on me

Like a bird of song
Forever swept
In the sands of time

Dance with me
In bitter defeat
Embers seeth
In torrents beneath

Lips in prayer
Soul in splinters
She falls like feathers
From the ether

Can you see me
Can you not hear me
In this early dawn

Psalms of heaven
Snuffed like whimpers
Gifts like sacrifice

Now that she’s gone
My heart has gone all cold

She will seize her place within me
Embers in the fire

Lies like thieves
Smiles that cleave
Prayers scream
And her eyes on me

Friends like sabers
Foes like mirrors
Father sowed his vengeance in you

Can you see me
Can you not hear me
In this early dawn
Early dawn

Can you see me
You can’t see me
She has seized me
Checkmate
Ember
Fire
Checkmate
