Shadowland Lyrics - The Baroness - Sarah Slean

I have been in the shadowland 

I heard the empty call 

of hatred, anorexia 

misery and alcohol 

By their hearths I warmed myself 

to escape from the winter years 

until I saw in the window 

myself crying fire-coloured tears. 

Love, the only alchemy 

Love, the killer of despair 

Love, the patient samurai 

Love, the armour angels wear 

Love.

They turned away the prophet 

because she was young and full of longing. 

Instead they turned to the magistrate, 

who was busy yawning. 

And they try to sell me holy books 

but i can see their eyes are wild. 

I caught them pouring shame and fear 

into the perfect vessel of a child.

Love's the only alchemy 

Love the killer of despair 

Love the true nobility 

Love the armour angel's wear. 

Love. 

Love will make your eyes clear 

the order of the universe 

the only reason we are here.
