"Lacrimosa" lyrics
Shining starlike, luminous like a ghost
Homeward bound, back through the deeps and out
Translucent skin, so pale and cold
This image reflects the doubt
But time itself is old
In the hollows deep and wide
In the depths forever more
I'll bewail you and all of those before
Your place is here in all the things foretold
Forever remember, never to forget
Those tears of quartz, perpetual
Chrysolite, jasper and agate
But time itself is old
In the hollows deep and wide
In the depths forever more
I'll bewail you and all of those before
Lacrimosa, Sancta Mater Dolorosa
Black wings of death unfold
Reunited and returned
To the black womb of the abyss
Back in time, back to the shadowy lands of old
Homeward bound, back through the deeps and out
Translucent skin, so pale and cold
This image reflects the doubt
But time itself is old
In the hollows deep and wide
In the depths forever more
I'll bewail you and all of those before
Your place is here in all the things foretold
Forever remember, never to forget
Those tears of quartz, perpetual
Chrysolite, jasper and agate
But time itself is old
In the hollows deep and wide
In the depths forever more
I'll bewail you and all of those before
Lacrimosa, Sancta Mater Dolorosa
Black wings of death unfold
Reunited and returned
To the black womb of the abyss
Back in time, back to the shadowy lands of old
