Backworld - Come the Bells
Lying with her face turned to the wall
The stars are gone
And its time to greet the bringer of the dawn
She turns and smiles
Tragic eyes
Like beads of glass in water jars
She floats alone near the ceiling
Staring back on her form
She's satisfied
Studying the fly on her arm
Come the bells
And the trumpets
And the the choirs
The kingdom calls
I see her now
Crying for a world that is lost
She turns her eyes for onе glance
As they're covеring with frost
The gems of the dead lead
From beyond the Western mountains
To the shore

An empty cross against the sky The mind and heart are reconciled A song to the lamb who has died The silver spear in his side And each note leaves a hole in my skin And

Come Sunday morn Come Sunday morn In the morning chapel lights We will meet each other's eyes Knowing that our hearts are burning through Come Sunday morn Come
Backworld - Lady of Sorrows
Alone in her chamber Well after midnight Praying in silence Falling apart She rises slowly Born up by angels Lady of Sorrows Pierced through the heart
Backworld - Hand's of Ash
I feel the touch of your soft hands of ash Calling me back from the dead And thus my love I will give of my heart I will rend it apart once again I remember it was just
