Anthem
Virgin Black
You shared flesh with medanced
with me in the ancient circleof
birth life and deathbut
You live againwhile autumn leaves
fallin the summer
of my lifeit is the millstonearound the
neck of us allbut
You wore it like a crownweaving
to the shrillthat makes
cowards of us allbut to
You it was harmony
You knew shame like no other
You tasted death like no other
You shed tears like no other
manthis incarnation repelled
mebut threw me to my kneescould
I be anythingbut a moth to the flame
Your cross compels me
You are the breath that gives me life
You are mystery
You are beauty
You are the risen Christ.
