Through the woods she set on foot
With a sacred blade cut the berries down
Dug up the dreaded mandrake root
Tread my path to summer's end
This bequest I leave you she says
You will see what could be evergreen
Turn to copper and fade to grey
By the standing stones
Atropine eyes smiled at me
Sitting in a sluggish vertigo
Sands of time form another dream
No love without sacrifice
No liege springs without decay
The final kiss is a wormy one
In soils cold caress to rest we'll lay
In the morning mist by the waning moon Through the woods she set on foot With a sacred blade cut the berries down Dug up the dreaded mandrake root Tread my path to summer's end This bequest I leave you she says You will see what could be evergreen Turn to copper and fade to grey By the standing stones Atropine eyes smiled at me Sitting in a sluggish vertigo Sands of time form another dream No love without sacrifice No liege springs without decay The final kiss is a wormy one In soils cold caress to rest we'll lay Explain Request ×
