When the snow turns black
I’ll be back — I’ll be here
Between the blinking of an eye
Welcome back — Cavalier
When the screams attack
Before the newborn starts to cry
Flaming star or the call of the wild
And it’s all in the eyes of a child
The whispers in the breeze
Black Xmas — Devils Eve
Black Xmas — Devil’s wine
The river bleeds in time
That’s the place — In a dream
Where the red clouds chase
Across the suns hot blazing sky
Where he hides his face
In disgrace — For his queen
He must choose the way she dies
And they say when his eyes turn to green
He’ll awake living sin never seen
That’s the clue — To believe
Watches over you
Watch his eyes look through
An instant and you’re hypnotised
False or true — To deceive
You take his place you’re crucified
Black Xmas — Devils Eve
The whispers in the breeze
The river bleeds in time
Black Xmas — Devil’s wine
Black XmasBlack Xmas — Devil’s wine
