The Drapery Falls

[Verse 1]

Please remedy my confusion

And thrust me back to the day

The silence of your seclusion

Brings night into all you say

[Chorus]

Pull me down again

And guide me into pain

[Verse 2]

I'm counting nocturnal hours

Drowned visions in haunted sleep

Faint flickering of your powers

Leaks out to show what you keep

[Chorus]

Pull me down again

And guide me into...

[Verse 3]

There is failure inside

This test I can't persist

Kept back by the enigma

No criteria is demanded here

Deadly patterns made my wreath

Prosperous in your ways

Pale ghost in the corner

Pouring a caress on your shoulder

[Verse 4]

Puzzled by shrewd innocence runs a thick tide beneath

Ushered into inner graves, nails bleeding from the struggle

It is the end for the weak at heart, always the same

A lullaby for the ones who've lost all reeling inside

My gleaming eye in your necklace reflects stare of primal regrets

You turn your back and you walk away, never again

[Bridge]

Spiraling to the ground below like Autumn leaves left in the wake to fade away

Waking up to your sound again and lapse into the ways of misery
