Nicodemus - Nightfall Bares My Burden текст песни

Here I ponder such bitter thoughts and complications
Layeth I shall in haunted sleep

Trust in my instincts beware I shall of these appetites
No rest for the wicked soul I keep
A restless mind and dancing eyes
Here I wish to dream of you tonight
Though any dream upon this night shall suffice

Wind ravaged curtains casts
Shadows upon the lifeless walls
Observations from this circumstantial slumber
Unconscious yet wide-eyed, I await the epiphany

Nightfall bares my burden
Here magnified by the chilling moonrise
When light takes leave, why is all undone?
Mistakes are always silent,
Though regrets reach us too clearly
Why must my torment breed this fear?

Wallowing in vampyric servitude hour by hour
For it grows more profane
And yet what this superstition hath maintained,
A firm hold o'er minds of men tis thy bane
Anchor me to anything forgive me but I fear I'm drowning
Wheres't thing hear this night?

Allow me to give you some notion of her
Not that first impression, whatever it may have been
But the Absolute Reality of her
As I gradually learnted to see it
She was, beyond all comparison,
The most graceful, and exquisite woman I've ever seen
But with a grace and beauty,
That has nothing to do with a preconceived notion
Or previous experience of what goes by these names

It is conceivable, that there once in a thousand years may rise
A combination of lines, a system, a gesture
By which is unprecedented beauty
I remember in the course of that one day,
Perhaps I was dreaming
You looked every now and then, as if you'd remark
The crown has fallen from my brow

There was a time she once would swoon at my vehemence,
But then she turned away and dropped my hand
I beg this resolution, a vision profound, which frightens thee

Wind ravaged curtains casts
Shadows upon the lifeless walls
Observations from this circumstantial slumber
Unconscious yet wide-eyed, I await the epiphany
