The blood remains as red, that colours our spirits white,
The blood remains as warm, that paints black skies with fire,
The word remains as high, that commands the snake to crawl,
The promise ever true, that shatters the venom vile.
The clouds are 'round about you,
Clouds are 'round about you,
Clouds are 'round about you,
The shadows veil your eyes.
The love remains as pure, that poisoned seas will ne'er dilute,
The love remains a flame that many waters can not quench.
The clouds are 'round about you,
Clouds are 'round about you,
Clouds are 'round about you,
The shadows veil your eyes,
The shadows veil your eyes,
Shadows veil your eyes.
The Ghost is ever bruised, who defends me when I fall,
The Ghost is ever sure, who holds tight for precious life,
The blood remains as rich, that poor sinners drink like wine,
The blood remains as warm, that paints black skies with fire.
The clouds are 'round about you,
The clouds are 'round about you,
The clouds are 'round about you,
The shadows veil your eyes,
Clouds are 'round about you,
Clouds are 'round about you,
The shadows veil your eyes,
Shadows veil your eyes,
Shadows veil your eyes,
Shadows veil your eyes,
Shadows veil your eyes,
Shadows veil your eyes,
