Chapel Perilous (Unlucky 7)

All my life I’ve disappeared Told myself it would get better So my wife you lead me here To Chapel Perilous, I enter All the blessings of the world Could not heal the sadness in me As poppies in the light unfurl So might I if truth shine near me Take me Guide my hand Take me in The hand that left its mark on me Is the only hand to heal me Or the gates to paradise Are barred and bolted, all locked to me Take me Guide my hand Take me in And the mouth that took the breath from me And left my tongue a burning desert I will kiss so hard it bleeds I will bring the rains to wet it Take me Guide my hand Take me in Here in Chapel Perilous Kings are made and lives are ended And I will learn to trust my love Until the bonds we severed are mended Take me Guide my hand Take me in
