Gardens Of Gehenna Gethsemane lyrics

The evening swallows the last light
And from out of the incarnadine
Forlornness creeps into my mind
Where doubt dwells

The light is dreaming of reincarnation
The night is dropping through the window pane
And a cruel invisible chain enervates me

And the river tears me down
And the waves clash over me
I'm floating down, sad and slowly
Home to my Gethsemane

Beside the life I'm living now
There is another one that could have been
A brighter one I've never seen
A paradise


Thoughts wither like autumn leaves
Full of sorrow they fall off from me
Fall with my tears, my sanity
Into the river

And the river tears me down
And the waves clash over me
I floating down, sad and slow
Home to my Gethsemane

My soul is haunted by wolves
And is ravened mercilessly
In the last eclipse I can guess
Where the river ends
