A dark night of the soul
Posted: Wed Aug 04, 2004 4:25 am
I've walked the graveyard at midnight
to find the old section
lovers gone to dust centuries ago
reading the inscriptions on the mottled stone
with my fingertips
down on my knees in the darkness
words of love and remembrance
I've roamed the darklands
I keep walking down mean streets
A street angel
Protected a soul
down on her knees
but Watched over
fulfilling my purpose
I've traveled the paths of the angry dead
Where on every hill a gallows
every noose an anhk inverted
brought forth the fire
burning in my soul for a soul
a life for a life, freed and continuing
fulfilling my purpose
I run through the grass
I run over the stones
Down to the sea
Show me the way back
to the sea
to find the old section
lovers gone to dust centuries ago
reading the inscriptions on the mottled stone
with my fingertips
down on my knees in the darkness
words of love and remembrance
I've roamed the darklands
I keep walking down mean streets
A street angel
Protected a soul
down on her knees
but Watched over
fulfilling my purpose
I've traveled the paths of the angry dead
Where on every hill a gallows
every noose an anhk inverted
brought forth the fire
burning in my soul for a soul
a life for a life, freed and continuing
fulfilling my purpose
I run through the grass
I run over the stones
Down to the sea
Show me the way back
to the sea
