Into Black

Was a time when words did carry notions of love from yours to mine It even saw the lovers marry mine to yours and yours to mine And many a soft glass of wine was spilled and drank inside the walls Joyous parties and happy times they touched us, touched us, one and all (I heard you hearing, going back I saw you seeing into black - Into black) In quiet repose the mistress fell and yet she did not fall alone The Earth shook as she went to hell still I can t find her in my home Oh oh, she surely used to come to see and happily drink this tainted wine She knew someday that she would be mine to yours and yours to mine (I felt her as she felt the rack She kissed me then turned into black - Into black) I remember how the dying went the howling wind whispering please Our life s blood was spilled and spent the times had brought us to our knees When cousins married cousins there from out the bottom of the line I heard the begging in your stare mine to yours and yours to mine (I said we burned the bodies and we hid the facts You know we turned them into black - Into black) Tomorrow s Sun still shines today Yesterday s Sun is in your eyes All death s Children have come to play and steal that garden in the sky See they re empty behind the masques shivering coldness in their breath They answer what we d never ask and laugh themselves from life to death (Are the soldiers coming back See them, free them, into black - Into black See them begging into black - Into black See them - Free them - Into black) This song is available as a free download at www.truefire.com
