Into stillness you move
Sorrow borrowed within
Holding glittering blade
Over innocent skin

Holding glittering blade
Into stillness you move
Deadly poison adorned
Fallen lover suborned

Fam'ly honour restored
Though it never was lost
Into stillness you move
At a terrible cost

Eyeless tool of despair
Headless beast from my past
Handless blade will not last
Into stillness you move

Unsheathed hate cuts your skin
Poison calling you home
Into stillness you move
Sorrow borrowed within

Howling swallows me whole
Into stillness you move
And unworthy I prove
Though I've shriven my soul

Into stillness you move
I must leave you behind
You were song in my mind
And my light in the dark

Over innocent skin
Weighs the punishing earth
Into stillness you move
To await your rebirth

And so wait I.

A finger severed
Inscribes a darkening mark
On all tomorrows
