lyrics

NIGHTFALL

She puts the blood-lilies in the throat of the vase.
She takes off her face, and hangs it to one side.
She loses herself in the mirror a while.
The hours resound through the blue empty room.

She reaches up high and turns off the stars.
Under the veil of sleep she must hide.
Twilights and yesterdays run through her veins,
And slowly she vanishes into the gloom.

She falls into the night, into the deep deep waters,
To give her tribute to the dark, to the darkness and its daughters,

And dawn comes, ashen and still. He rises from his dreaming,
Feeling the cold air caressing his face, the light from windows gleaming.

He picks up the glass and he rinses it clean.
His tears wash the last of her from his eyes.
He turns on the news and he blinks at the screen.
Flowers burn bright against grey empty skies.

And he prays for the mercy of rain,
And he waits until night falls again.
