Holy Water Lyrics & Tabs by Chalice

Holy Water

guitar chords lyrics

Chalice

Crown my head with roses dead
Cover me with sorrow
Pale, my face, as death's embrace

Draped in veils of mourning
Fragrant seas of memories
Aching bittersweet
Paint the night in oceans of white
And clothe the sky with tears
Holy water, salt-kissed skin
Holy water, streaks the porcelain
Holy water, silver stain
Holy water, soul's acid rain
Empty eyes enshadowed with lies
He wears his skin like a shroud
Paper thin and hollow within

Empty eyes enshadowed with lies
He wears his skin like a shroud
Paper thin and hollow within
Lifeless though he lives
Pearls of sadness softly fall
In this graveyard still and silent all
Hope and love lie cold and dead
Holy water christens my black head
