Under Cloak And Hood Lyrics

Under Cloak And Hood lyrics

Godless and eyeless

With a pristine word

and a charcoal heart.

Staring down from someplace else



We speak like snakes

We live like leaves

We take like men

We touch like thieves



Standing under the oak,

Under cloak and hood



Down by the sea

and under the waves

it was whispered to me

that nought was saved



Over the Plains

deep under the ground

the night sung in my ear

that all will be found



Scaling the wall

that hid all from sight

our bodies grew weak

our skin seared by the light



So why is it now

that all is undone

in the age when the moon

makes pale the sun
