Thy Catafalque - Neath Waters lyrics

rate me

And as the spirit's grained to sack<br />

Of shining flesh by mills of time<br />

And as the flaming's drowned to mud<br />

All whisper me mortality... <br />

<br />

By window slumbering deeply<br />

Soulsilence, rainpainting of thee<br />

Ships of time sail me home this night<br />

Let the sea wash my hair weak white<br />

<br />

Glasshearted clouds above diving<br />

Veering and falling and rising<br />

Nightfall room, winter shade these days<br />

I close my eyes when I am awake<br />

<br />

Beneath an evening garden<br />

Glowing the loneliness<br />

These are the shades of passing<br />

To paint incandescence<br />

<br />

The machines of changing<br />

Revolving, rotating<br />

Ships of time sail me home this night<br />

<br />

Neath waters slumbering<br />

Neath gardens still glowing<br />

Let the sea wash my hair weak white<br />

<br />

When you wake up, you close your eyes<br />

Wake up, close your tiny eyes<br />

When you wake up, you close your eyes<br />

Wake up, you close your tiny eyes...</
