Into Black (Lyric) by Wulf
Was a time when words did carry
notions of love from yours to mine
It even saw the lovers marry
mine to yours and yours to mine
And many a soft glass of wine
was spilled and drank inside the walls
Joyous parties and happy times
they touched us, touched us, one and all
(I heard you hearing, going back
I saw you seeing into black - Into black)
In quiet repose the mistress fell
and yet she did not fall alone
The Earth shook as she went to hell
still I can t find her in my home
Oh oh, she surely used to come to see
and happily drink this tainted wine
She knew someday that she would be
mine to yours and yours to mine
(I felt her as she felt the rack
She kissed me
then turned into black - Into black)
I remember how the dying went
the howling wind whispering please
Our life s blood was spilled and spent
the times had brought us to our knees
When cousins married cousins there
from out the bottom of the line
I heard the begging in your stare
mine to yours and yours to mine
(I said we burned the bodies and we hid the facts
You know we turned them into black - Into black)
Tomorrow s Sun still shines today
Yesterday s Sun is in your eyes
All death s Children have come to play
and steal that garden in the sky
See they re empty behind the masques
shivering coldness in their breath
They answer what we d never ask
and laugh themselves from life to death
(Are the soldiers coming back
See them, free them, into black - Into black
See them begging into black - Into black
See them - Free them - Into black)
