Var Gud Over Er - My Dying Bride

I placed her steady, in front of me

And within her lips, she caved into me

And hold her fast I did

Lest she be swept from this earth

The sullen coast of her heart

The menace of her island

I know that I am unkind

I’m honoured, lover, that you still try

Her heart, careful and broken

She places its pieces below

And with the length of her whole body

Are shadows so very old

Her body was a belief

My kiss its dedication

A serpent this is she

Whosescales release the ocean

Her weeping face, I hold in my hand

As her salutation

It’s from her shadows

She took me, to cast asunder

Se that fears my presence

Loves me when I’m absent

The growing blindness of my soul

Sinking under
