This haunted masque of grey
This blanched face of despair
This phantom of dismay
This pocket of prayer
She's the face of a beast
She's the hands of a priest
O, watching from a spine entrenched in earth
Inanimately, I'm lying
O, so desperately crying
This moon arcing above my head -
- will she stalk the sun forever?
This beacon of hope
This flare of betrayal
This forward-thinker
This sun never looks into the shadow
O, deep enterprise
O, brand new day
O, fair daylight
Push the moon away!
She moves with cold lust
She conceals her motives in the clouds
She sinks into the earth in search of her quarry
She is dispelled with each shattered window of daylight
I'll paint a picture
I'll see a vision
I'll compose a melody
To take me to the future
O, see the ripples she leaves in the silken sky?
Her hatred is endless.
I'll not comply.
I raise my lantern to the moon, and walk into the haze.
