Across a Thousand Blades Lyrics

Angel, why am I so blind?
Angel, why am I so blind?

The room,
Sweat pouring,
Eastern incense
Warm red embers within amber flesh
Slithering naked across a thousand blades
Across a thousand blades

I hold you gently, your eyes so far away
Searching for your justice
Searching for your innocence
Lost as a child adrift on a lonely sea
On a lonely sea
Slithering naked across a thousand blades
Across a thousand blades

Burn my memory, burn my outline
The tears scream to scar your unpierced flesh
Shattered mirrors reflecting back your face
"Let your defenses fall!"
Your candle never burned me
The ashes fall to the ground

Burn my memory, burn my outline
The tears scream to scar your unpierced flesh
Shattered mirrors reflecting back your face
"Let your defenses fall!"

As you try to pierce my poisoned flesh
As I try to pierce your tortured heart
As you try to pierce my poisoned flesh
As I try to pierce your tortured heart

Ashes in the Brittle Air Across a Thousand Blades The Touch and the Darkness Through Sky Blue Rooms The Scar of a Poet You Tangle Within Me From the Tightrope Am I So Deceived Is It Love That Dare Not Be? I Ran to You I Wish You Could Smile
