Virgin Black
Album • 2008
Amorous eyes, crippling word I bring Grief vents itself more violently The hour of parting is at hand Hope, your warmth failed The famished are here, forsaken Fleeting, fading, the fragile Fading, the fragile It drinks deep into the soul Drinks deep into the soul Fleeting, fading, the fragile It drinks deep into my soul Drinks deep into my soul Drinks me deep

I lie with blackened chest Tears, dense, welling in swollen eyes Resplendent in winter's ash My God be upheld in our distress My cries fill the air Domine libera manes defunctorum Winter envelopes I lie with blackened chest Tears, dense, welling in swollen eyes Resplendent in winter's ash Where is my God, in the dull ear of night? With tuneless voice, a requiem sung Wailing and breadless, alone On a flower strewn earth Where is my God? Look at me, upon my bruised head Taste my ruin, my ashen soul I tread alone Winter envelopes

Sorrow ever awaits on joy And has rendered me to pieces You who must stoop to view the skies Stoop amongst the dying Libera eos Domine I silently wait, and claw my eyes Libera eos Domine Stoop to slake this thirst My sorrow can no more lament There is no arm to cling to Stoop to slake this thirst I silently wait, and claw my eyes Libera eos Domine Silently, silently Waiting, to gorge in solitude When will my sorrow begin to pale? And to my head I raise these flowers Yellowed, withered Silent, silently Waiting, to gorge on solitude When will my sorrow begin to pale?

Drink me deep O death devour Cover me with darkness And paint me like death I drown in remembrance I am blind with weeping And will mourn until death Place the hand of God in dust I am suffering, I am blind I am made blind with weeping And I will mourn until death I tread alone I am suffering, I am blind Place the hand of God in dust I am in the dust, but there I find you Misery calls, the dark night of the soul Abandonment carries me home Carry me home.

Misery calls My blood has died And marked my eyes with stains perpetual Blood has died Lifeless life cradles dust Trembling, quantus tremors est futurus Fading, judgment is at hand Darkness I drink deep into the soul Drink deep into your soul I am made blind with weeping I drink deep into your soul Drink deep into your soul My blood has died Blood has died Lifeless life cradles dust Trembling, quantus temor est futurus Fading, judgment is at hand Darkness My God, save us, O death Sorrow ever awaits on joy And has rendered me (to pieces) Requiem, Kyrie, requiem My God, exhort, to not merely draw air, But breath the skies
