The Cold Black Key
Azam Ali Lyrics
The key to this place
Is a cold you know
The real dispelled
Into the world you know
Doubt, tasted, you fall in
Down you sink
Into her deep devour
She's still the key holder
And through this portal
Endowed with will
And a course your own
Bound by the despair
Of the shoreless hours
Heed this flame
Within the walled empire
This desire
Is all around
She's still the key holder
And through this portal
She courts you now
If love be revealed
In the spart of an eye
Could all be redeemed
In the sea of time
If the stars embed
Like nails into the ground
From the unheard prayers
That have torn up the skies
Would you will it away
As you sail on your way
