Where The Long Shadows Fall (beforetheinmostlight) Lyrics - Singles - Current 93

Around me: I stand on the shore 

The waters are black and swirling 

I hold a black mirror in my hands 

The /swastiked/ winds sweep around me 

Their arms the nightbreath sleepwalking 

The sighing of imminence and ending 

All there the waves curl under and over 

Around me: I see things coming to a close 

The door is /nearly/ shut 

As we stare at it the tinylight squeaks out 

Slower and slower 

I see things coming to a close 

The folding cerecloth shrugs down over the windows 

The lights burn still: but /invisible/ to us now 

I see things coming to a close 

(My mind kissed Myrinerest last night) 

I dreamt 

I cannot see 

I cannot see 

I can no longer see 

And nor would I want to 

Anymore 

Clearblindlayeredlightcolourblindeathcomecomecomecome 

Goaway 

The pale toothed face inverted 

At the feet of the /Rose Garden/ 

By the hedge and by the dream 

By the post and by the bell 

By the dawn and by the form 

(/Formless He Lay and Dreamt/) 

And formless we lay and shall dream 

And then the rain 

"My pain beneath your sheltering hand" 

He cried 

And gave himself up to the Tempter 

The rebel angels (he thought and knew) 

Would indeed array him with robes of water 

But not mad 

But clear 

Why can't we all just walk away?
