October Tide Stars Starve Me Lyrics

[Verse 1]
I swore it had gone
Yet, yet in vain?
Caught in the coils of oration again
Above, I was the witness of
Wings, once unfurled
Below, my splendor, no
No longer tied to this world

[Chorus]
I saw the serpent in my sleep
These scales often waiting in my most desolate dreams
And at times, oh, it bears such horns
Its eyes
Much more menacing than the night

[Verse 2]
I swore it had gone
Yet, yet in vain?
Caught in the coils of oration again
Above, I was the witness of
Wings, once unfurled
Below, my splendor, no
No longer tied

[Chorus]
I saw the serpent in my sleep
These scales often waiting in my most desolate dreams
And at times, oh, it bears such horns
Its eyes
Much more menacing than the night Before
[Bridge]
Descend if not for a day
Stars starve me
Of my breath, of my light
A vision less than serene
Descend if not for a day
Stars starve me
Of my breath, of my light
A vision less than serene
Descend if not for a day
Stars starve me
Of my breath, of my light
A vision less than serene

[Verse 3]
Fabric not of life
Descend, if not for a day
For shivering souls
Into a cold
As old as the flame
Above, I was the witness of
Wings, once unfurled
Below, my splendor, no
No longer tied to this world

[Chorus]
I saw the serpent in my sleep
These scales often waiting in my most desolate dreams
And at times, oh, it bears such horns
Its eyes
Much more menacing than the night
