skyclad – my mother in darkness lyrics
dance with the lilies in the shadows of the valley –
my lily of the valley of the shadow of death.
her velvet shadow in the rain, disturb the stillness of the hour.
each crimson kiss a tender pain, like plucking petals from a flower.
she took me pure as driven snow – held my hand and then let go.
matriarch of l-st nocturnal – fill her vessel with your fire.
child endowed with life eternal – taste the well of her desire.
she is my mother in darkness.
a pierced lip – a warm embrace, ice blue eyes that chill my heart,
valkyrie kisses burn my face – this “red thirst” tears my world apart.
what is a poor boy meant to do? i close my eyes and wish i knew.
she rip the throats from singing angels,
white wings stained red with ruby tears.
bare limbs entwined within a casket wrapped in bl–dy afterglow.
so many questions we could ask – but do we really need to know?
now she is my mother in darkness.
her velvet shadow in the rain…
dance with the lilies in the shadows of the valley –
my lily of the valley of the shadow of death.
she is my mother in darkness.
