In Memory of Shadows' Madame Songtext
von Cadaveria

Diaphanous figure
Who silent rides death′s wisdom
It's said you came
When the weary sky was sinking

Into its eternal sleep
And that only your cry
Would have announced a new dawn

Mistress of the air
Shaking the fronds of icy hills
Who at dawn caresses
The bare branches of foggy plains

You grew up
As a lonely witness
Of existence′s foolish theatre

On your visage
The signs of a gloomy memory
Your lips wound false innocents' hearing


With painful truths
And biting sentences
Sentences!

You knew
The inner pleasure of senses
The poetry of wind
The secret of fire

Your will has the strength of thunder
Your spirit, the impetus of the final fight

Oh great mother
Who lavishes love generating hate
Enchanting muse of unspeakable fancies

You will rise again
From the ashes
Wrapping the great
Catastrophes

Pure, joyful and immortal
Darkness and light will eternally
Follow you
In the temple of the new dreams


In memory
In memory
Of Shadows' Madame
Of Shadows′ Madame
