Veronica DaVanzo - Witching Hour Lyrics

I bleed by candlelight
The moon is bright
It strips away my sight
I feel it burning down
A lunar sound
It shatters sky and ground
A low and humble awe
I take the fall
Retrieve my senses
All I feel is frailty
It's casting me
Into the roaring sea

Bitter longings stain the heart but
You are not my soul incarnate
Road abandoned, air electric
Light me up - I'm always born again

I met a devil fair
With jet black hair
He smelled of mountain air
As tempted to my vice
He named his price
And gave me this advice
He said, Don't hesitate
Just contemplate
A brand new life without
No more sweet lullabies
Or midnight cries
Turn your heart inside out
Now I stand at command
With pen in hand
That's shaking at the thought
He thinks I'd give it all
To have it all
But poets can't be bought

Two souls tangled on the open road
Dying to be what neither could see

Bitter longings stain the heart but
You are not my soul incarnate
Road abandoned, air electric
Light me up - I'm always reborn
Bitter longings stain the heart but
You are gone, you're nothing for me
Road abandoned, air electric
Light me up - I'm always born again
