lyrics

upon the precipice, beneath the night so rare
misted breath and frosted dew, the silence in the air
the stars, they whirled above us, the constellations twined
your eyes, how brilliantly, how brilliantly they shined

hell forged our unity and tempered it with fire
and fire burned me through
I'd been through everything, gave everything for you
and you did too

thrall to your dark religion, how perfect was our love?
daughter of all creation, writ on the sky above
but you could not avoid the inhumanity
when all the stars in heaven came crashing down on me

hell forged our unity and swiftly fell the night
a candle twice as bright
edge of reality, our destiny in two
severed without you

Thoughtful lyrics about love and faith lost. Savage dark industrial sounds. Pristine, the debut album by Seattle's XY Beautiful is a journey of misery and hope.
