Anathema - Under a Veil (of Black Lace)
from the "Serenades" album
1993 Peaceville Records
Lyrics:
With loving passion, oh your radiance
A serenade I cry
Your silk lined coffin the lachrymatory
To hold a mourner's tears
Ethereal splendor
Pale skin and down cast eyes
Scent of paradise
Like her, forever remains unknown
Through tear stained eyes
My view is growing weaker
Please help my grief be vanquished
Thy bed of roses, funereal drapery
Impale me on your thorns
Celestial splendor
Pale skin and down cast eyes
Farewell autumn kisses
Like her, forever remains unknown
I loved her ... but now she's gone
(It's so hard to face)
Overcoming ... tender reckoning
If I too depart the earth
I harmony to (our) heaven we'll elope
Heavenly grace with which to ease
the virgin's tears

Same, I was 13 too. One of my first cd and still a favourite. Like their other stuff too. I think that Anathema is a band that walked the right path when you talk about progression and growing as a band.

Same here...I first bought the album when I was about 13 years old and it was a cassette with the Serenades and Crestfallen albums together. I've gone through several copies and have never been able to find it released that way since.
