The Miscarriage Songtext
von Ex Libris

Oh, the truth has arrived
It played out before my eyes
′Twas ever so divine

Oh, the son you could have been
Salvation to a queen
These hollow hopes of mine
Wide-eyed lies

My daughter, oh righteous English rose
Your spirit brings comfort to my soul
May you not be heiress to the throne
And absolve me?

Why have you taken him from me?
Why has fate such ravenous teeth?
Oh, through these weary bones
No life echoes


I guess there is nowhere left to turn
My tale has been written, past bridges burned
Why am I forsaken to thee, Lord?
Oh, have remorse!

Why have you taken him from me?
Why has fate such ravenous teeth?
Oh, through these weary bones
No life echoes

Why have you taken him from me?
Why has fate such ravenous teeth?
Oh, through these weary bones
No life echoes

Oh, you traitor!
The angels have come to take you home
You were my savior
But now there's no future in our song!
You were my savior
My labor... oh!
You were my savior
My savior!
And now salvation′s gone
