lyrics

Consume me, as blossom covers earth
Rise again, a tableau that forsakes
Twin miracles, the birth of perfect hate
A thousand lies, to fall and so to pray

They fester in joy
And offend every eye
Born to brush the sky
And pluck roses from heaven

Consume me, as blossom covers earth
Rise again, a tableau that forsakes
Twin miracles, a life of perfect hate
A million lies, praying as we fade

In silence, the ghost of ardent life
It passes, and ashes fill the sky
Of reverence, it knows and it reviles
All beauty, so eager to deny

A debt of souls, withered and denied
Ophelia drifts pale into the night

It grows, it burns
As cold as midnight sun
The flames of Gemini
Sear flesh from the undone

Red scars of longing
The loss of lovers past
Dread fear, the sadness
Red shards of shattered glass

Man's hope, laid waste
Such tyranny in the womb
And I resent them
These hollow blooms
