Lyrics Virgin Black

Virgin Black

Drink the Midnight Hymn

Under a serene sky

Earth covers your gentle form

in verdant fields

Soul is reft from bodies

To my head I raise

A wreath of white flowers

And cry "Unhappiness"

My mournful valediction

I drink deep into your soul

Killed with hate

You died with love

The cry of my heart

The cry of my soul

Dreamless sleeper

Your face, the grave will change

Your blood poured

liked your saviour's

I drink the midnight hymn
