opeth - april ethereal lyrics
it was me, peering through the looking-gl-ss
beyond the embrace of christ
like the secret face within the tapestry
like a bird of prey over the crest
and she was swathed in sorrow
as if born within its mask
her candlelight snuffed, the icon smiled
emptiness followed by her wake
i could clasp her in undying love
within ghostlike rapture the final word was mine
she faced me in awe
it was a token of ebony colour
embodied in faint vapour
wandering through april’s fire
compelled to grasp and to hold the one that was you (2x)
i will endure, hide away
i would outrun the scythe, glaring with failure
it is a mere destiny i thought
a threshold i had crossed before
the rain was waving goodbye
and when the night came the forest folded its branches around me
something p-ssed by, and i went into a dream
she, laughing and weeping at once: “take me away”
i don’t know how or why, i’ll never know when
