Hessian Peel Lyrics - Opeth

Will their children cry 

When their mother dies 

And in the autumn of their lives 

Will they feel the same? 

[reversed lyrics 2:03-2:22] 

The longing for me 

Comin' down like hail 

Why did you leave me? 

Come here inside 

And tell me how 

How in my final days 

You found around 

Your concern 

The signal for us to end our lives 

To wipe beneath the watches 

And you wait forever 

The night comes high 

Your weakness 

Storing trace on your eyes 

So I left you alone 

We all left you alone 

[reversed lyrics 7:21-7:24] 

Lock the children away from harm 

They'll lock all your reason why 

Seeking (?) with a dagger 

Skin is blocked by the years of trial 

You felt abandoned in the fog of flesh 

Sitting in place from the dead 

Awaiting the face of the moon to ascend 

You follow the siren in your head 

In your head
