A Solitary Reign

I see distance in your eyes
Bury me
To sleep tonight
Your touch divine
I saw distance in your eyes

He came to claim
What was his
And for years I lived
A solitary reign

I retraced
My steps to your embrace
I wanted you to stay
Yet you died away

Your touch divides
I see distance in
In your eyes
Please sing me to sleep tonight

And for years I lived
A solitary reign
Your touch divine
The distance in your eyes

You reside in me
The sacrifice

Like blood seeping through
Your old wounds
I am your old wound
You took your leave

Torn from you
Inside of you
Torn from you
Inside of you

The most beautiful eyes I could look into
I now see distance in your eyes
And I know it's a solitary reign

It's a solitary reign
Your touch divine
In my mind
Please sing me to sleep tonight
Tonight

I'm torn from you
I'm your old wound
Your old wound
Mother mine
Sing me to sleep tonight
To all I ever loved
It's a solitary reign
