lyrics

so
I won the boy like a lottery
still don't know how he
could be mine

he wove himself in
with a sleight of his hand
and all the loose ends
intertwined

so I sang vespers
till the light would fade
as a serenade
to the night

Suplicat
I know what I am not
don't take him away
don’t take him away

but
I knew all about Entropy
all that's bound will be
torn apart

so I laid my bets on Penelope
still unraveling
in the dark

and I sang vespers
till the morning light
as a serenade to the night

Suplicat
I know what I am not
don't take him away
he is all I've got

and oh it's a beautiful pain

if one day
what we start
will unravel
come apart

then I ask
the Abyss
spare the cutting
for our kiss

we'll stay long
in our song
blessing the twilight
