Take me into your dark green heaven
Take me into your dark green heaven Away from this burning world Where I forgot to find love
Where I named the days and lost The meaning of hours Take me into a heaven of rain
Away from the mortal eyes of love Wasted worlds tumbled through my hands Hard, dead worlds of count and plan
I named them lovers, raised them high Ruins nestled inside this heart of ash, Scattered across the end of days
Take me into a wind-drenched meadow Name me and I shall follow Away from the shadows that blossom
What did I love? Flowers and stars Illusions of brilliance, histories of sky In transitory seductions, I lost my way
Forgive me, for I have forgotten to love Take me, this deadly sin shall never pass Take me into your forest at nightfall,
For I have fallen and forgotten love
