Dark Refrains

Galaxies of Gold

Passion burns fiercely in a swirl of colour
Opening a hole into another world of velvet seas and silken skies.
Visions of twinkling eyes shine through your soul,
It must be your mandala so dance on its twirls.

       Green velvet is to lie on,
       Blue velvet is to drown in,
       So float in the black
       To galaxies of gold.

Hearts of the evil turn love into lust
With a silent scream of immortal trust.
Tears of the angels rain down from desert skies
And rivers of blood flow from desperate eyes.

       Green velvet is to lie on,
       Blue velvet is to drown in,
       So float in the black
       To galaxies of gold.

The chequered blackness expands to hide our face
In a shrinking tide rippling through space.
The music penetrates through our ears
To bathe our spirits and suffocate our fears.

       Green velvet is to lie on,
       Blue velvet is to drown in,
       So float in the black
       To galaxies of gold.
