Ash and Lace

Walk slowly - turn to face the light
Caught unfolding but never seeking sight
Dark is home, words are fodder
Casualties of cannon fire, oooh
I have found a place to thrive
I have found a place to writhe in peace with silence in between

The darkness wraps me in her arms
She tells me I've been gone too long
Meet me where the steps aren't clear
And all that's known is all you hear
Meet me in the shadow place
Kiss me with your ash and lace
Oh, I said, meet me in the shadow place
Kiss me with your ash and lace

Search the rubble - there's movement underneath
Seek a shelter if sunlight's in your speech
'Cause there's a place of stars and lightning
There's a place where light is frightening, ooh
Let me be and let me sleep
The moon will call me out to peek
Is it me you're seeking?
Or is it face you're keeping?

The darkness wraps me in her arms
She tells me I've been gone too long
Meet me where the steps aren't clear
And all that's known is all you hear
Meet me in the shadow place
Kiss me with your ash and lace
Oh, I said, meet me in the shadow place
Kiss me with your ash and lace

Climb on down the starlit ladder
Find the moonlight solid matter
If you fall you don't belong
Keep your footing stretched and long

Your ash and... ooh

Meet me in the shadow place
Kiss me with your ash and lace
Said, meet me in the shadow place
Kiss me with your ash and...
