Once through the mirror
The candles hushed their light
A winged stag appears with tail aflame
Three binding corners
This ghastly shadowed sight
An angel bound and begging, "take these chains"
Just take these chains
Oh, take these chains
This is no king I see before me
So I open the vein
I open the vein (I open the vein)
It speaks in whispers
Of truth and of divine
It speaks of carnal wisdom with no shame
Bring me the chains
I can handle the pain
In the dark I could swear I saw her sly smile
I can hear the angel say
I am not the heir apparent
Just a pretender to the throne
Wretched disciples on my counsel
We lived in hell so long it's home
Heavy is the crown of bone
I am not the heir apparent
Just a pretender to the throne
Wretched disciples on my counsel
We lived in hell so long it's home
Heavy is the crown of bone
Heavy is the crown of bone
