We are the Purple and Black Flowers

By Metal Lullaby


Dripping from the heaven within your soul, is your love,
It is splashing down on me warm and dry
I want to see that smile, and hear that laugh up above
I want to reach your heart and tread the sky

I look up and feel those drops of love pour onto my face
Rivulets, numerous, they run down me
Me, which waits for your touch of purity
I see you in all your beauty, in all your grace
And drops of my own fall for you, my deity

In this time it is only you and I
Enwrapped in the raining earth
Drenched with liquid of purity
Loving love for all that its worth

We are the purple and black flowers,
With icicle footsteps of loneliness
We are on the edge of sanity’s towers
Hanging on by loves loveliness
Running and crawling
Speaking, forestalling:
Never go away
Deeper earth’s falling
Each is the day
Hide my face
Seek no delay
Drink of hell’s blood
The earth shall pay

We are the purple and black flowers
Hanging on to sanities towers
