Envy the Moon

[Verse 1]
What lies behind the etched stare?
A longing for eyes not destined to me
What of these steps like stone, echoes of my feet?

[Refrain]
Soul released, do I dare die of my grief?
No promise to keep
Sing myself to sleep
Sing myself to sleep

[Verse 2]
Winter beguiled, yet its essence remains
Rust in lieu of flowers
An autumn of stone and chains
Devouring gasp, to be the air
The sky agape to rain despair

[Chorus]
I felt it blanket me, cold cloth of dusk
And when midnight struck my gilded tomb
Envy of the moon
I felt it blanket me, cold cloth of dusk
And when midnight struck my gilded tomb
Envy of the moon

[Verse 3]
I held the dawn
Dusk never escaping my hand
Painful observer
Embodying absence
The wind, it seems so cruel at times
The breath of noxious day
A touch of diluvial night

[Refrain]
Soul released, do I dare die of my grief?
No promise to keep
Sing myself to sleep
Sing myself to sleep

[Chorus]
I felt it blanket me, cold cloth of dusk
And when midnight struck my gilded tomb
Envy of the moon
I felt it blanket me, cold cloth of dusk
And when midnight struck my gilded tomb
Envy of the moon
