Agalloch - You Were But A Ghost In My Arms Lyrics

Font:      
Align:    
  • Like snowfall, you cry a silent storm
  • Your tears paint rivers on this oaken wall. . .
  • Amber nectar, misery ichor
  • . . .cascading in streams of hallowed form
  • For each stain, a forsaken shadow
  • You are the lugubrious spirit
  • Etched in the oak of wonder
  • You are the sullen voice and silent storm
  • Each night I lay
  • Awakened by her shivering silent voice
  • From the shapes in the corridor walls.
  • It pierces the solitude like that of a distant scream
  • In the pitch-black forest of my delusion. . .
  • With each passing day, a deeper grave. . .
  • "Why did you leave me to die?"
  • "Why did you abandon me?"
  • "Why did you walk away and leave me bitterly yearning?"
  • Her haunting, contorted despair was etched into the wood's grain
  • Though fire rages within me, no fire burns fiercer than her desire
  • The shape whispers my name. . .
  • I damn this oak!
  • I damn her sorrow!
  • I damn these oaken corridors
  • That bear the ghosts of those I've thrown away!
  • Though tempted I am to caress her texture divine
  • And taste her pain sweet, sweet like brandy wine;
  • I must burn these halls, these corridors
  • And silence her shrill, tormenting voice
  • . . .forever. . .
  • Like snowfall, you cried a silent storm
  • No tears stain this dust in my hands
  • But from this ashen gray, her voice still
  • Whispers my name. . .
  • You were the lugubrious spirit
  • Who haunted the oak of wonder
  • You were the geist that warned this frozen silent storm
  • You were but a ghost in my arms
