lyrics

the cloak hangs draped around the form
an hourglass drops sands like rain
widows gather roses for the storm
to plant next to the secrets lain

calling here, calling here
watching Emily from a distance
coming near, approach, appear
watching Emily from a distance
holding dear, fog is clear
watching Emily from a distance
whisper fear in your ear
watching Emily from a distance
fine veneer / oh sincere / disappear

the clock is hanging like a thread
and pale white wanders out of day
watches the sun drop off and bring about the dead
of night
and she wonders how to pray
