Lyrics:
Thorns and Branches
Among the branches
With roots below
I travel this path alone
With my lover in tow
Grieving in my newfound solitude
An undesired and unending loss
I thought the realm may have been colder before
Now incomparable to this unearthly frost
Bleak
Heart colder than midwinter night
I only hope within my hands I’ve the strength
Hope
Shattered like a skull on the rocks
Effortlessly drifting away
Screaming ‘til silence remains
Thorns and branches rip and tear at the flesh
As my footsteps carry me deeper and deeper
Into the fog
The path it narrows
I can barely see in front of me
Yet the glow of the beyond
Begs for the corpse of my eternal love
Footsteps carry me deeper and deeper
I can barely see in front of me
Lower and lower
Surrounded by silence I begin your descent
Lower
Lower
Among the branches
And the roots below
Now lay my lover
As my heartbeat slows
I struggle
A shuddering breath
As I lament for you
Rest peacefully under the soil and roots
I will see you once again
Buried beneath the soil
I wipe the sweat from my brow
Shaking I rise to my feet
Strength waning
I mark the grave and begin to leave
Each step it seems
I grow colder still
As though the last warmth
Was buried with them
Gasping I collapse
I am not meant to leave
Lower and lower still
Among the branches and roots below
Roots and Soil
And I will see you once again
Buried beneath the soil
And I will see you once again
Buried beneath the soil
When you look for me
Don’t look towards the sky
We’ll be together once again
Dancing along the peripheral
I tearfully recount
As the weight of the soil
Obscures your voice again
I couldn’t just walk away
Memories call out from beneath
Visions of you swaying in the wind
No longer dancing again
Recollections of you
Waiting for me gray
As I collapse and I wail upon the floor
The rain falls down upon my skin
A tear opens the veil once more
My heart broken still beats in anticipation
Plunging my hands into the earthen cage
I may not rest ‘til I am next to you
As desperation takes hold
And I don’t wanna live this way
My gasping breath now grows cold
Broken shell with faded memories
How could I cherish another
How could I cherish another
I don’t want to live forever
Nothing will be the same
I must join you again
Under the thorns and the branches
Below roots and soil
Together now we may descend
I will see you once again
I will see you once again
