The soft orphan gleans some scanty ears
Her eyes graze roundly
And golden in the dusk
And her lap
Waits for the heavenly groom
How sad this evening is
I'm a shadow
Far away of sinister villages
I drank God's silence
Of the grove's well
As they returned
The shepherds found her sweet body
Decayed in the thorn bush
Cold metal gets at my brow
Spiders search for my heart
It's a light switched off in my mouth
How sad this evening is
I'm a shadow
Far away of sinister villages
I drank God's silence
Of the grove's well
I found myself on the heath at night
Full of garbage and stardust
Again clinked crystal angels
I'm a shadow
Far away of sinister villages
I drank God's silence
Of the grove's well
Past the hamlet The soft orphan gleans some scanty ears Her eyes graze roundly And golden in the dusk And her lap Waits for the heavenly groom How sad this evening is I'm a shadow Far away of sinister villages I drank God's silence Of the grove's well As they returned The shepherds found her sweet body Decayed in the thorn bush Cold metal gets at my brow Spiders search for my heart It's a light switched off in my mouth How sad this evening is I'm a shadow Far away of sinister villages I drank God's silence Of the grove's well I found myself on the heath at night Full of garbage and stardust Again clinked crystal angels I'm a shadow Far away of sinister villages I drank God's silence Of the grove's well Explain Request ×
