Sunset Serenade

White was her name and to her we would pray Until we were bound by her will to this place For something we've not done, but might just do twice We worshipped a crown of lies The cost we will count in the days we've spent here We'll spend them on our graves Her wait is now over, she's back from the dead When she saw him, this is what she said: "We're not long for this world I yearn to see what's heard Sing me before we fade, A Sunset Serenade!" Black was his name and to him we would pray Murdered by someone unknown to our day A clue we may find in the burns on his face To how we fell from grace Carved into wood were his warning words last How do we read the past? His search is now over, he's back from the dead When he saw her, this is what he said: "I'll sing you and wipe your tears Somewhere Hell can't hear us A special place in time Above the halo line!"
