Melpomene Lyrics

	Melpomene

	Première Leçon

	I looked into the eyes of the Basilisk.

	Beside the shores
	Of silver streaming sadness to be,
	She came to me disguised as Melpomene.
	Like asphodels winding through the chasms of Heaven,
	We were passing along the waves of the ocean
	And slowly reaching the gates of the Sun.

	The beams of the night preceding me...
	The streams of light preluding you...

	The walls were weeping blood
	But feverish was our waiting, Love.
	You once cherished our embrace
	That day the horizon was weeping nights.
	The instants of time were running low
	And every shape set like bronze
	Reminded me of your name.

	The shore landscaping your face...
	The sea piercing through your eyes...
	A sea died with the salt of our tears.

	As the scale of a pearl preventing her from being an eye for the Sun,
	I am but death and stain within you.
	As the foaming quiver of life soiling the surface of ennui,
	You are the dream in me.

	Surround me with colours I am longing to see
	And shadow that light upon me.

	Sear me in a sea of snakes.
