The Fragrant Thorns of Roses

Let mother nature sweep me up in her infinite arms

Let her carry my burden, this sorrowful dirge is to comfort her

Her sweet night lullaby will sooth my sadness

And I'll dream the passions once again, for all my dreams are but of her

And let the moon reside over us tonight, like embracing lovers

Its gentle solace warms me with its light

As giant trees shed their tears before my path, soft colours of cool Autumn nights

And I walk upon the thorns of roses spread along my path

Blood leaves the innocence far behind and lets the corrupt aggrandise

Tread this bloodiest path, and you'll taste her infinite love

Into the arms of mother nature and time beyond

Her feminine beauty surrounds us at all times, her hate is all I seek

And sheathed are those who are blind to her darkness, her hate is her love

She is always crying out for her children, yet our concious minds cannot hear her cries

My concupiscence for her is great

I am truly one of her cult, a spitual one

Whose heart rests in melancholy...Forever, the word itself is etched in my skin

My feet are bloody from walking this path

My face hardened from all my loss

And my tears have long dried up, and no more tears can I shed

I just keep walking in the night, searching, for knowledge is the key to her wisdom

Into the arms of mother nature and time beyond

I bury myself deep in her bossom

And hold on all throughout the long night

Whilst the chorus of nature lulls me into sleep, and into dreams of the sullen

I'm so tired, tired of being alone

I cry out to let her know of my desire, she will answer my call

To pass through into the dismal gloom of death

She will taste my blood tonight, the sweet taste of my blood

The hour of my demise has come, the final hour

And the sun is close to dawning

I walk along the path, weary and my feet bloodied and sore, from the fragrant rose thorns underfoot

Deep into the woods

I take the knife and hold it out before my eyes, the gleam from the blade is frightening

And say my last goodbye, I'm coming.

I cut deep into my flesh and watch the blood run forth from my wounds

And fall to my knees when I see the light, the final light before the darkness

And I know, I am one with her, my mother nature

And I shall go now, into the arms of mother nature and time beyond...
