Purest Gold ft. The Charismatic Voice Lyrics

On the wings of the butterfly

From the rings of the falling sky

I linger in my dreams to stay the pain

On the wings of the butterfly

We will sing of a mother's lie

And every sorry soul shall know my name

Beneath the empty womb

The leaves come gently falling

My golden guise a failing remedy

Our tree is halved and hewn

Yet I can hear you calling

Your voice still echoes silently

Torn apart are we

I've waited so long for you

Carrying on for you

Onto the faintest hope I hold

I've waited so long for you

Carried this burden to

Fend off the fortunes long foretold

To rot in purest gold

To rot in purest gold

On the wings of the butterfly

In the deep where we dim and die

I shed my stricken skin, this crumbling bark

All the ruin that I have wrought

All the scars of the battles fought

Through sightless eyes I gaze into the dark

And in my still repose

Time passes oh so slowly

In shrouded shelter I remain confined

Until the flower grows

Blossom of blight will hold me

So I may bloom a final time

I shall dance divine

I've waited so long for you

Carrying on for you

Onto the faintest hope I hold

I've waited so long for you

Carried this burden to

Fend off the fortunes long foretold

To rot in purest gold

To rot in purest gold

And I'm still longing

For the comfort that you brought

No sign or song of what I've sought

I will dance divine

Down in these roots I slumber

My form it falls asunder

Feed me these dregs to conquer

So I may taste my honour lost

I will dance divine

On the wings of the butterfly

From the rings of the falling sky

I linger in my dreams to stay the pain

On the wings of the butterfly

We will sing of a mother's lie

And every sorry soul shall know my name

They will know my name

I've waited so long for you

Carrying on for you

Onto the faintest hope I hold

I've waited so long for you

Carried this burden to

Fend off the fortunes long foretold

To rot in purest gold

To rot in purest gold

In darkness I will dance divine
