"Dark Harvest" lyrics

"Dark Harvest"

In an age of separation and impersonal desire
I hungered for her liberation
My fingers aching to untie her

In this dark harvest, watch illusion burn
In this dark harvest, the king will return

Bring me down into your body
Heal me in your heart's clay
Look in deeper to the mirror
Looking deeper through my shame

I want to know you to your marrow
Feel the longing in the bone
I want to kiss you in the shadow
I want to love you on the throne

'Cause this a dark harvest, the lover's fire burns
In this dark harvest, the queen takes her turn

In the darkest part of me
All the ground I tried to flee
Persephone come back to me
In the darkest part of me

'Cause this a dark harvest, when the work is done
In this dark harvest, let the kingdom come

I took you in the underworld
The pomegranate seed
Something deep inside you loved to touch
Something deep inside of me

And I watched her move for hours
Seasons of memory
Demeter handpicked every flower
To touch eternity

'Cause this is dark harvest
The lovers live to burn
In this dark harvest, the king will return
