The High Priestess

The leaves of light fall from the branches of your hair
And we know the roots run deep
But that glow may not reach down there

And that's ok
What i'm about to say
Shouldn't make you feel in any way you don't want to
No obligation
No expectation now

I found myself in silence
Reaching out through the air
To your graven image
Your amethystine visage

You took the words right out of my mouth
And wore them like a headdress
You spoke my thoughts exactly
And a wave of chills attacked me

Baptized in the blood of the past lives
We laid at the altar
A sacrifice
For that ever-lasting elusive independence

But I gotta say
I'd really like it if you stayed
I wanna hold your hand before they close the chapel doors behind me
