Sabaoth - Dawn lyrics

rate me

I have kissed the summer dawn<br />

Before the palaces<br />

Nothing moved<br />

The water lay dead.<br />

<br />

Battalions of shadows<br />

Still kept the forest road<br />

I walked, walking warm<br />

And vital breath<br />

While stones watched<br />

And wings rose soundlessly.<br />

<br />

... a clear pale light<br />

... a flower who told me it's name<br />

<br />

I came upon the goddess<br />

Then one by one<br />

I lifted her veils<br />

Across the meadow<br />

Where I betrayed her to the cock.<br />

<br />

I hunted her<br />

And I hunted her! <br />

<br />

And smelled the scent<br />

Of her immense body.<br />

<br />

Dawn and the child fell together<br />

At the bottom of the wood<br />

When I awoke, it was noon.<br />

<br />

Life was it really this?<br />

Life!
