I lay upon your golden wings silent and divine I fall before your gaze never quite the same black serenity I'll never let you go of all the times I lay dying you're there to hear my call I dream of sanity a time to let it go in our silent slumber the embrace shall never end black serenity your arms around my neck in a shadow a silhouette together we are all 'before me I see the beauty of angels as her hair cascades down her face I hear her voice, here in this sanctuary in these arms, a river to drown...' black serenity hear her call to me black serenity before the dawn we sleep
