By The Brilliance Of Candlelight lyrics

In the day, in the night



To all, to each thy sadness



For thy words, for thy pain



Shall speak for all time







For snakes of silver throat lie in wait for thee



As I sing a death hushed dirge of suffering, shining gray







On dew kissed mourning grounds I burn the candles black



For the sun shall rise and light this poppied field



And all thy weeping words will flee from thee



For all the sorrow I have known, Shall bleed in silence



And as she sways thee softly in time



I see that I am nothing, but broken shards of emptiness







All I've known, All I've touched



Shall wither in her raven arms



All I've known, All I've loved



Shall perish in the embrace







Yet know I'm dying, dying, dying for....thee



For life is tragedy in remembrance
