The Rise And Fall Lyrics

Artist: The Divine Comedy
Album: Fanfare For The Comic Muse

The rise and fall; the fall and rise
The freezing breath; the frightened eyes

The rise and fall; the fall and rise
The naked truth; the naked eye

The rise and fall; the fall and rise
The open heart; the opened eyes

The rise and fall; the fall and rise
My lady laughs; my lady cries:

"Hold me in your arms
Hold me till you kill me
Hold me till you break my will
And passion fills my heart"

The rise and fall; the fall and rise
The Holy Ghost is exorcised,
And you and I
Shall no longer
Look at life
Through the half closed eye
