Annihilator - LIGEIA lyrics

rate me

I do not remember, where we did meet

Lengthened years have built my mind, memories undeep

Yet with instability, one thing stands too clear

Lady perfection, mystery, of whom I shed a tear

Chorus:

Airwoven divinity, mind, soul in victory

Cured of her malady, could this be my lost;

Ligeia

Repeat Chorus

Sickness fell upon Ligeia, all knew she would die

Midnight came to lay her rest, farewell

Opium dreams, grief-stricken years, I took another bride

Replacing that which I did have, Ligeia why

Repeat Chorus (x2)

Bridge:

Chronic disease, my luck cursed

My new wife has died

Coming from her bed of death, I thought I heard her cry

Could a corpse cold, stiff, sedate, sob in the bed it lie

Approaching her, I chilled to stone, for it did swiftly rise

I can never be mistaken, there were, they were, Ligeia's eyes

Chorus:

Airwoven, divinity, mind, soul in victory

Cured of her malady, could this be my lost;

Ligeia

Airwoven divinity, tears shed, vitality

Cured of her malady, yes this is my lost;
