Artist : Opeth Song : April etheral It was me, peering through the looking-glass.
Beyond the embrace of Christ. Like the secret
face within the tapestry. Like a bird of prey
over the crest. And she was swathed in sorrow, as
if born within its mask. Her candlelight snuffed,
the icon smiled. Emptiness followed by her wake.
I could clasp her in undying love. Within
ghostlike rapture the final word was mine. She
faced me in awe. ´twas a token of ebony colour.
Embodied in faint vapour. Wandering through
April´s fire. Compelled to grasp and to hold the
one that was you. I will endure, hide away. I
would outrun the scythe, glaring with failure. It
is a mere destiny I thought, a threshold I had
crossed before. The rain was waving goodbye, and
when the night came the forest folded its
branches around me. Something passed by, and I
went into a dream. She laughing and weeping at
once: "take me away". I don't know how or why,
I´ll never know When.
