Black Rose Immortal

Opeth Opeth

In the name of desperation
I call your name
A lamentation I sigh
Again and again

Spiritual eclipse
The gateways are closed for me to seek
The night...
A veil of stars, watching

My shadow is born from light
The light of the eye, in darkness
Over troubled waters memories soar
Endlessly searching night and day

The moonlight caresses a lonely hill
With the calmness of a whisper
I wear a naked soul
A blank face in the streaming water

It is cold in here
Frost scar my coat with dust
Eyes attach to your mute portrait
We spoke only through thoughts

Together we gazed, awaited
Hours brought thirst and the rising sun
Sunbirds leave their dark recesses
Shadows glid the archways

Do not turn your face towards me
Confronting me with my loneliness
You are in a forest unknown
The secret orchard

And your voice is vast and achromatic
But still so precious
Lullaby of the crescent moon took you
Mesmerized its kaleidoscopic face

Granted you a hollow stare
Another soul within the divine herd
I have kept it
The awakenth symbol

Hidden inside the golden shrine
Until we rejoice in the meadow
Of the end
When we both walk the shadows

It will set a blaze and vanish
Black rose immortal...
it's getting dark again
Dusk shuffles across the fields

The evening trees moan as if they knew
At night I always dream of you
