about

A slow-burn doom song, written in December 1993 as result of an emotional tragedy.

lyrics

In walking through thorns, and breathing in hell
My muse be the only solace, the only one who can find me...find me
...find me

Find me, tame me
Ride me when you feel your solitude
No-one knows me, I'm the breath of evening dew

Wail wind upon me
Save my last prayer of hope tonight
Take me softly
Lay me far from endless fight

CHORUS
I am hungry - I need to feel your heat
Growing thirsty - this torture that I feed
Take my spirit into a world of love
And for once, just let it hover up above

Slowly floating
Cries my heart to be with you
Hopeless, lonely
Blessed are those who are free from feud
I need star light in my dark and broken soul
Free me, free me
As I hear your thunder roll

CHORUS

Peaceful ending
Could this be the curtain call?
Have my body
Hold it close before I fall
Hush me, weary
Save my last prayer of hope tonight
Take me, take me
As I fall through endless night

CHORUS

Take my nature way up to Heaven's crest
And then leave me there to heal my soul in rest
