The Rise And Fall

The rise and fall; the fall and rise

The freezing breath; the frightened eyes

The rise and fall; the fall and rise

The naked truth; the naked eye

The rise and fall; the fall and rise

The open heart; the opened eyes

The rise and fall; the fall and rise

My lady laughs; my lady cries:

"Hold me in your arms

Hold me till you kill me

Hold me till you break my will

And passion fills my heart"

The rise and fall; the fall and rise

The Holy Ghost is exorcised,

And you and I

Shall no longer

Look at life

Through the half closed eye
