Swallow The Sun - Here On The Black Earth

Lyrics to Here on The Black Earth by Swallow The Sun

You're the island In the sea of time I'm the ghost ship in the night In the eye of the storm You're the lighthouse I am at the edge of the world Beyond the walls Death tore out the flesh from my bones Left my soul so pale and hollow My hands reach into the void Where you used to be Built my armour from the bones of them angels Breathing out the arrows of God My hands reach into the void Where you used to be You're the island on the broken sky I will keep my sacred vows Under moonlit skies Here on the black earth In the fragments of an empty heart Where you used to be Death tore out the flesh from my bones Left my soul so pale and hollow My hands reach into the void Where you used to be Built my armour from the bones of them angels Breathing out the wrath of God My hands reach into the void Where you used to be Riding on the edge of the world Now free like the racing clouds Circling around the halo of the moon Like the birds of the night when touched by the sun You're the island In the sea of sky I'm the ghost ship in the night In the eye of the storm You're my lighthouse I'm at the edge Of the world
