A Funeral Request

White rose perfume, go with thee on thy way
Unto thy shaded tomb, low music doth fall
Lightly as autumn leaves about thy solemn pall
Faint incense rise

Oh, you, you fell away from me, my love
Like all earthly things
Vanish into death's cold mysteries

Serpents marked with azure rings
Cathedrals where rich shadows fall
Things strange curious
Majestical solemn saviour

Oh, you, you fell away from me, my love
Like all earthly things
Vanish into death's cold mysteries

You promised me laughter in autumn days
Now I can't escape this lucid haze
I can't awake, can't awake to laugh with you
I'm so weary

Claws on my flesh
Statues of lost souls dominate this house
Angels have no pity
Their wings have turned to stone

Come, travel, naked lovers
Beyond all dimensions of heaven
We lie enchanted forever
In the lucid garden of dreams

In all animate sources and creation of belief
We travel seas of illusions that begin at our dreams

Ethereal architects, masters of all fate
We create our fantasies in the lucid garden of dreams
