Track Insight / Lyrics

Cold wind kisses the copper crown Rain writes verses on my skin Forged for a chapel's quiet hush Now I sing where the dead begin Altos rise where the wax runs red Lantern in black water Holds the night in liquid glass Lantern in black water Catches breath as spirits pass Candle gutters, wind takes a tithe Flame bows low in reverence Choir rises on a frozen breath Latin verses chase the death Incense ghosts on the cold stone floor Lantern in black water Holds the night in liquid glass Lantern in black water Catches breath as spirits pass Feet in pointed shoes tap near Laughter spills like wine on stone Faces young and old appear Reflected in my glass alone Masks drink the light I have shown Lantern in black water Holds the night in liquid glass Lantern in black water Catches breath as spirits pass Organ drones from the church on the hill Violin weeps a minor third My flame is a prayer the wind cannot kill Held in water, undisturbed Dawn will crack the black mirror's face Steam will rise when light returns But tonight I hold the sacred space Where the lantern in water burns Ash and wick for the morning urns Lantern in black water Holds the night in liquid glass Lantern in black water Catches breath as spirits pass Lantern in black water Flame sleeps in the glass Dawn drinks the water
