Agalloch As Embers Dress The Sky Lyrics

As Embers Dress The Sky Lyrics

The shallow voice of the wind cries between these ebony wings 

The shallow cries of the wind sing a swansong for mankind 



Shine on morning skyfire 

ablaze this final day 

The autumnal end, the dawn of man 

The centuries fade below my feet 



I soared above them as they worthlessly poured thought from a chalice 

As wisdom would flow, twilight would come to pass 

Drink, oh hallowed cup of life 



Shine on evening skyfire 

Paint the sky with the blood of a raven 

Bereavement, oh garment of ebony 

As embers dress the dusk of man... 



[Music by Haughm/Anderson (3/96 - 10/96)]
