"Black Lilies" lyrics

She was strange but never loud
Kept her eyes down in a crowd
Spoke in pauses, thin and slow
Like she heard what we don't know
On a night of early fall
When the frost climbed up the wall
She said someone called her name
No one
There, but still he came

They said, it's just your loneliness
An echo in your head
But she swore she felt his fingers
Trace the places fear had fled...

She was strange but never loud
Kept her eyes down in a crowd
Spoke in pauses, thin and slow
Like she heard what we don't know
On a night of early fall
When the frost climbed up the wall
She said someone called her name
No one there, but still he came

They said
They said
They said

She said a ghost lay by her side
Cool as silver rain
Whispered
Secrets in the dark
That burned without a flame
They laughed and shut the story down

Down, down, down
Down, down, down
