Opeth - Hessian Peel lyrics

Will the children cry When their mother dies And in the autumn of their lives Will they feel the same //(Reversed lyrics 2: 03-2: 22) //Uoy ees I //Natas teews ym //Thginot kcab emoc //Draytruoc eht no tuo //(Out on the courtyard //come back tonight //my sweet satan //I see you) Her longing for me coming down like hail Why did you leave me Come here inside and tell me how How in my final days I'd find the rhyme The light comes on The signal for us to act out our lives You wait beneath the white sheets and you wait forever The light comes on Your weakness Storing trace on your arms So I left you alone We all left you alone //(Reversed lyrics 7: 21-7: 24) //yhw nosaer ruoy lla kcol ll'yehT //(They're no longer your reason why) Lock the children away from harm They're no longer your reason why //Seeking tenderness with a dagger //Skin is marked by the years of trials You felt abandoned in a flock of friends Singing praise for the dead Awaited the face of the moon to ascend And followed the sound in your head
