Lyrics

Beautiful Thorn

The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.

Ivy kissed the shadows

As mo(u)rning lusts for dew

She with lips of sweetest pain

Lies in wait for you

With the dawn she went away

Before mist veiled the earth

Nothing remained, except for the wounds

The only gift of her

"Oh, for themselves they should despair

When our graves lie in silence, but we're not there

When there are voices close to your ear

But no reflection is haunting the mirror"

With the dawn we fade away

Before mist veils the earth

Nothing remains, except for the wounds

The only gift of him, me or her
