Bleak Thorn Laurels Lyrics

Bleak Thorn Laurels lyrics

Thy love, I gather the thorns for thee



To speak the scars, sad many.... they are







They bleed their palms across thy face



They are the tears I wish to shed



Yet only tears of red shall fall



On this night, on your grave







The scent of dried flowers, rest upon the palls 



As night graces rose garlands black



For bleak laurels of dead lilies and thorns



Hang so silently still upon walls draped in ornate death



Wailing in sighs deep and forlorn



In mourning I wish only to corrupt the silence



Cold marble reflections of dreams lucid in sorrow



A vision of beauty that forever sleeps







I am the one who regrets



Her loss, her love, the wasted years



For time withers away her ghost



And I live only to collect her tears



To lament the memory of her laugh



For her breath is still held close to thee



Yet she sleeps so still in thy arms



Yet thy kiss falls harsh on her lips







I am nothing yet I am, I am everything yet still I yearn



Let these bleak thorn laurels honor the vast sorrow I have endured







The sad cypress sings of black star lit nights



Caressed by the crescent moon's blood red hue



Let the petals fall upon this sullen path



For nature's sweet kiss knows your song of tragedy
