Lament Lyrics - The New York Room

as dusk grows cold 

and the sky comes forth, 

echoes long and low 

the piercing thorns of dawn 

have now all gone away 

bathe me in darkness 

beneath thy veil 

darker, darker 

deep within: further, further 

oh, dark night 

hold me close 

tight in your arms 

don't leave me alone 

plagued with doubt and woe 

to you I've come alone 

weary and worn with scorn 

bathe me in darkness 

beneath thy veil 

darker, darker 

deep within: further, further
