Veil of Shame Lyrics

So light, on my shoulders
Beautiful veil of shame
Exquisite is the stench
That surrounds me

Repulsive trace of black filth
Still behind me
Still behind me...

Every feeling was pain
Every effort was in vain
Useless my cries again

I can't forgive, I can't forget
Those scars on my face
I can't forgive, I can't forget
Those years under the veil of shame

Last night the pain was harder than ever
The thorns went deeper than ever before
Last night the fever was stronger
The blade struck closer than ever before

I can't forgive
I can't forget, those scars on my face
I can't forgive
I can't forget, the veil of shame

Last night the pain was harder than ever
The thorns went deeper than ever before
Last night the fever was stronger
The blade struck closer than ever before

The wounds bled faster than ever
The knife cut deeper than ever before
Tonight my heart beats stronger
My eyes shine brighter than ever before

Every feeling was pain
Every effort was in vain
Useless my cries again

Now the veil's been torn away
But the damage done can't be repaired
For the tears have scarred my face
Those tears I can't forget

So light, on my shoulders
Beautiful veil of shame
Exquisite is the stench
That surrounds me

Crystal armour that covered my face
Canvas for my holy disgrace
Exposed inner vital membrane
Torn away, torn away

Will I forgive? Will I forget
Those scars on my face?
Will I forgive? Will I forget
The veil of shame?
