about

Lyrics adapted from the writings of the wonderful Oscar Wylde.

lyrics

Trying to gather up the scarlet threads of life
to weave them into a pattern to find my way
find my way through
the sanguine labyrinths of passion
through which we are wandering

I'll pick up the pen
for you I had loved
Implore forgiveness in madness
Blaming myself is just enough
the confession, not the priest, brings absolution

Strange that my first passion be for the dead
can they feel, I wonder, those white and silent?
Can she feel now? or know? perhaps listen?
or trapped in the sanguine labyrinths of passion
I forever wonder now...

I'll pick up the pen
for you I had loved
I implore forgiveness in madness
There is a luxury in self-reproach
When we blame ourselves no one else ought blame us
