A dream of love, of soft carrion Left in a field to dissolve A dream of hope, never again Begin at the end, only to fail Helplessly hurt, hopeless to heal Search for the truth all in vain I cover you with blood, you cover me with wounds I cover you with wounds, you cover me with blood A dream of love, of soft treachery Your exquisite collapse in my arms There through the mist the tyrants of memory Are flogging a horse, dead in the rain Wasting away in dark oblivion Chained to the stake I drove through your heart
