Faith X 9

There's rain heading in from a memory,
I don't know if it's the weather or if it's just me,
You can't tame the wind you just let it blow, You just try to believe when you don't know.

Love in the darkness I can't find your hand, Prop me up on a skeleton stand,
Is there room in heaven for god and man,
I feel as small as a grain of sand.

The maid poured poison it tasted like wine, Her face melted away; I thought it was a sign,
But underneath was the black veil of death, She bent for a kiss and drew my breath.

Love in the darkness I can't find your hand, Prop me up on a skeleton stand,
Is there room in heaven for god and man,
I feel as small as a grain of sand.

In the living of it; I just don't know,
The life of it seems to die,
Color rains on the black and white,
And still the painter knows not why.

Life in your light I can't find my head,
I follow the ways of what memory said, Good and evil dream like truth in my bed,
Is there room on earth for the life of the dead.

So now as I try to see you clearly,
Well, maybe I love you dearly,
Rose petals fall instead of rain,
But they just add fragrance to the pain,
This vision is caused by a like of sight, Hope rises then falls; nothing more than blight,
But I'll love you if out of nothing but spite, Your darkest shadows are caused by your light.
