In my silent room
I would whisper your name
into the shadows
blow out candles
and I'd dream of you

In the golden dawn
I would watch her spinning
her yarns for Mayfair
wash her long hair
in the golden dawn

I've known you one thousand years
and I saved you this cup of tears
and I was so hurt you did not recognize me

Like the rosary
she had lost all the faith
she had in me
I weep softly

In my silent gaze
You will see within my soul
ancient spirits
swirling violent
in my silent gaze

I sing this soliloquy
and I summon you in my sleep
but no reply

Light the festival fires
let's challenge the night
let's gather in horrorefrain
Dance in pantomime trance
This age of romance
this gathering doth conjure me

Though all good things have gone to waste
I have not gone I still remain
here within these fire flames
my ghost shall always haunt this place
My spirit has known no demise
I only forfeit my disguise
and though you cannot see my eyes
please know I still behold you

Drink the festival wine
revel in time
but please don't forget your fate
You shall mortal uncoil
ascend from the soil
and you all must leave this place
...alone

On my final day
please don't question if you will
ever see me
or I will long thee
from my lonely grave
On this wedding day
I'll submit to thee
all my life unfolding
Azrael hold me
on this wedding day

Light a candle for me
stay in your room
shut out the cold cruel world
Angel, just go to sleep
and soar into dreams
for there I'm awaiting thee
I love you still
