Obsidian Reign Another Day's Mourning Lyrics

Awakened by nightmares that she was only a dream
Another day's mourning is what awaits me
Recollections overthrow my peace
Isolated within this agony

As she died in my embrace
My tears kissed her lips
Surrendered to eternity in my arms
And my tears they fall still

Touching her hand, I watch her eyes in expectation
Wondering if she will open them to me
This is a world her eyes no longer can envision
Nevermore will she open them to see

The heartache of time moving ever onward
Unrelenting clock governs passing days
But as seasons keep changing, my sight grows clear
As each day passes, she grows ever near The moon now hangs longer in the sky
As frozen nights caress the earth below
A lover and friend that I have lost
Lies buried deep beneath the snow

12 months have passed through the hourglass
While the sands of sorrow wept
Though her body was stifled in a silent tomb
Afterlife is never truly death

On the eve to the day she left
She now returns to me
Her portrait smiles from beside our bed
As her soul has been released

Enframed visage wears the knowing face of wisdom
As she conveys to me the secret truths of death
Lurid beauty; my beloved angel beckons
Whispering with tenderness
