The Pale horse came foaming From a dissipating cloud The sound of all Hells army
Heat between our fingers Radiating wonder
Draining bucket after bucket On the alter we rebuilt
The color from your face is lost Ravaged you like cancer Arrows of fire Poisoned you with fever Hot sweat boiled between us As I wait for you to go
But your dreams are perfect Beneath a shaded oak tree You fell asleep with me Flowers growing and dying around us Trails of sailing clouds Thin enough to breathe Fingers are a wonder Touch softly on my face Warm or cool it didn't matter
Heaven thank you for taking her Heaven keep her The mountains here are cold I stumble on them alone The deserts are dry Sand no longer chokes you Or cuts your eyes I drag through them alone
Silent seas of blood I only wish to drown in So I can be with you
Hail of fire falls And I cry for the rocks to fall upon me Your picture now smeared and faded As the seals are broken I fight scorpions with the body of a lion And the face of a man As the heaven white ****** Walks on the seas The dragon circles the shore Searching for her scent
The wisemen bow before him Giving gifts of gold As the book of life is opened And my name was not called
Breaking from the line to find you But millions line the streets Behind me he thunders Depart for I knew you not
Sent to dineΒ Β with Hades As your candle in heaven is covered In the black sulfur Heated beyond any fire I can smile as you sit beneath an oak In some corner of heaven Dreaming about me What god would not allow True love to break the gates of fire
