Dawn Comes For Us All

the sky is white as the snow tonight
are you out there somewhere, in the pay of the pale cold light?

skyclad and leeward, all around the silken tent
until the flare at the copper clock tower
the moon had come
all again, once again
collecting rent for an unearthly power

growl and prowl and howl
with the ivory tooth
all the seers have gone sere
at troublesome truth

with a soft call dawn comes for us all
dawn comes for us all

red is the light when it shines through your skin
belies the life within
belies the life within
