Than The Serpents In My Hands Lyrics - Darkness And Hope - Moonspell

Dorme, dorme meu menino 

dorme no mar dos sargaos 

que mais vale o mar a pino 

que as serpentes nos meus braos 

-Mrio Cesriny 

And when all life as you know it 

-fails 

all ghostlike lips taste just the 

-same 

What better comfort can you find 

Than the serpents in my arms 

Sleep, sleep now my child 

In the sea of crystal Trouble 

For better is the violent sigh 

Than all that you leave behind 

In your eyes a dark so subtle 

Tells you walk, but never fly 

To leave us all behind 

And when all life as you know it 

-fails 

all ghostlike lips taste just the 

-same 

What better comfort can you find 

Than the serpents in my arms 

Down, down terrible child 

To look at it is a sin 

For better is to hold that smile 

Than all that you leave behind 

In your eyes a mark so subtle 

Tells you walk, but never fly 

To leave us all behind 

And when all life as you know it 

-fails 

all ghostlike lips taste just the 

-same 

What better comfort can you find 

Than the serpents in my arms
