Текст (слова) песни: Theatre Of Tragedy - Bring Forth Ye Shadow

Bring Forth Ye Shadow

Time is an abyss -
Profound as a thousand nights;
I sojourn my haste, I make respites
For what availeith this eager pace?
One step more naught to face,
Save the heirloom fatal kiss.

I rave no more gainst Time or Fate,
For lo! my own shall neer come to me,
Yet! - Who doth my future narrate?
Dim the lights - I cannot see!
Bring forth ye Shadow! -
With whom danceth thou?

Time hath stoppd -
Yet for others neer halteth;
For me the Pages of Life do not turn,
Lo! - on the funeral pyre they burn.
The oh so eathing Velvet Darkness they fear -
Heed! - wherefore delve a burrow,
When in my arms "O! Come here"? -
I say, elsewhither is naught but sorrow!

For what deemest thou so dear thy blood
When through my veins it could flood? -
Bide to merry - make me unaptly;
And hence grant me the fell gift,
The gift of passing on the dark trick.
Tis such a brazen act of erotic;
Trifle for thee, yet for me grandly thrift,
O! such an innocence deprivd so hastily -

Alas, for what deemest thou so dear thy blood
When through my veins it will flood?
