Lyrics
Verse
The candles burned low in the frozen air
Shadows danced but no one cared
Her song of sorrow hung heavy and stark
A hymn for the lost in the endless dark
Chorus
Oh Christmas
Oh cursed day
Wrapped in black
Not red or gray
A tale of dismay
A world gone astray
But the Goths
They sang anyway
Verse 2
She wrote of snow that fell like ash
Of joy that cracked and turned to trash
A choir of ghosts sang in her head
A dirge for the living
A feast for the dead
Prechorus
No bells
No cheer
No merry light
Just silence howling through the night
Chorus
Oh Christmas
Oh cursed day
Wrapped in black
Not red or gray
A tale of dismay
A world gone astray
But the Goths
They sang anyway
Bridge
The violin wept as the clock struck one
A requiem played for the unholy sun
She whispered her pain
Her voice a spell
And the Goths all knew
She sang it too well
