Backworld - In This New Dark Age
Now it has found us
In this isolation
The signs in the stars are uncertain
Behind the blind curtain
Demons are drawn to our dreams
In this new dark age
In this new dark age
Bonfires on hilltops are blazing
Voices supplicating
The old gods return from the past
Bands of wild angels are flying
Between the dead and the dying
Through the thin veil we passed
In this new dark age
In this new dark age
Now we wronged so far from heaven
We can hardly remember
The bright days before the dark age
Myriad angels surround us
Miracles astound us
Lest we slip through the cracks
In this new dark age
In this new dark age
In this new dark age
In this new dark age
In this new dark age
In this new dark age
In this new dark age
In this new dark age
In this new dark age

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

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

Five O'clock in the morning comes again The hour of emptiness Mother beside me wide awake But we're not speaking Even as she's beside me I am alone As I
