Light Upon Us, Haze Around Us

from The Leaden Ghost by Shallow Rivers

/

lyrics

Light upon us descends.
And you’re so fragile melting in my arms,
A vision ethereal.

The morning fades in tranquil harmonies.
A dancing shade slips through my hands.
To the untrodden path
Where still immortals stand.
A serene shelter for their eternal rest.
A hardly beating heart I hear
In a whistler’s melody.
Oh, my mind can yield.

A wanderer of the lonely sea
To serenade my woes away.

A grey fog breaks the dawn
In stirring madness of the blusterous sea.
By storming winds
Her sleep disturbed. Disrupted.
She’s still horrified
And tightened to the deck.

Oh, how I wish she was alive.
Once dashed ashore a fair maid.
Far off and desolate.
Her drifting corpse of chaos made.
To return to life no more.
In deep poisonous salted waters.
Into the void.

And then I saw utter destruction of a visible form.
Scorched, wrecked and torn.

That fog dispelled upon the shore.
Again your body laid frozen.
No more my breath could thaw your soul.
Each dawn I open my eyes and sigh for you.
