The Periapt of Absence

"The Periapt of Absence" Lyrics by Mother of Graves

When the sky burns out the sun

A quiet stare masks the coming night

I roam untrodden halls in search of you

Whose whispers upon my heart do they write

With this periapt I hold to my chest

And a wounded stare behind my eye

I’ll carve into the wilderness

The tale of you and I

A restless cry in a sea of aeons lost

A reflection in the dying light

Your spectral voice echoes to me

Through the falling autumn leaves

Severing the embittered veil

As my spirit wanes beneath

With these tears I’ve long beheld

The dream fades before my eyes

I’ll carve into the walls of your heart

The words of thine

I’ll follow you through the silence

Of the earth’s decaying guise

May it evermore haunt the path we laid

This tale of you and I

Reaching to the starless void above

With idle hands that long again to find

A restless cry in a sea of aeons lost

A reflection in the dying light

Through pale meadows that without hope lie

Where time in solitude rests

I’ll sail these seas of eternity

At the world’s forgotten end

And though upon these broken shores

Wash the sorrows of my name

I’ll love you forever – forever all the same
