Letra de White Snow, Red Shadows
When the world was young and bright A champion was forged in steel Given the ability to bend and kneel Armoured in a cuirass of close-held feelings Into battle steps a thoughtful knightThrough trial and error he acquired a stubborn streak Gallantly he renounced the need to speak Hoarding his stories behind his collar Slinking into action full of cautious mightSnow White's in the garden playing catch-up with her broken dreams Then behind the forest there's a murmur and the path begins to shine The ancient trees are trembling for the prince to come Underneath the canopy of wilting leaves their faces are alignedAnd it will feel so good And be amazingly true Like an open wound when it's bright and new Like the taste of love on a firm and steady hand Or the present tense of a tingling brand Oh, there's a thousand stories waiting to be left untoldA bashful victor, bold but redicent He didn't know that evn though the path seemed clear A foretold fateful spark was poised to set the whole world on fire He caught a chimera bursting into life Fierce and lucid like a sordid dreamSnow White's in the courtyard playing hangman on her fingernails Down through her spine runs a shiver and the stars begin to climb She holds her breath and look! - here the hero comes Underneath a waxing moon the heartache proves that irony is blindAnd it will feel so good And be amazingly true Like an open wound when it's bright and new Like the taste of love on a firm and steady hand Or the present tense of a tingling brandSleek coils of fate are twitching, writhing in obscure salacious waves A seething mass beneath the tower Her face is buried in a secretwhile he puts his gloves away Strong fingers choking on the powerIt will be good And outrageously true Like an open wound when it's deep and new When surrender rides on the softest kiss When the safeguard's gone and it feels like thisSnow White's in the garden pouring honey with a muted scream Snow White's in the forest and the story isn't what it seems Snow White's in the courtyard and there's blood under her fingernails Snow White's in the tower of red shadows and the pattern fails
