tenebra, tenebra e tenebra

[Verse 1]
[M] In mensa frigida, tria pocula vacua
[F] Three candles tremble on the same altar
[M] Nomen meum vitrum obliquum ac caecum scindit
[F] Your name returns before it fades away
[M] Domus stridet cum arcanum tuum dico
[F] And the mirror learns to look at me

[Pre-Chorus]
[M] Tenebra una
[F] Dark two
[M] Tenebra tres
[F] And what comes after?
[M] Una porta
[F] With no answer
[M] Iusiurandum
[F] Without a voice

[Chorus]
[M] Tenebra, tenebra, tenebra
[F] Dark became us
[M] Tenebra, tenebra, tenebra
[F] Deep inside us
[M] Si tres unum fiunt
[F] Who pays the price?
[M] Tenebra, tenebra, tenebra
[F] And the world in anguish

[Verse 2]
[F] I saw you leave with salt upon your fingers
[M] Te redire vidi sine venia petita
[F] On your lips, a river of ashes
[M] In pectore tuo processio habitat
[F] Every step you took brought a bell
[M] Omne osculum tuum exsequiae fuit
[F] I heard my blood singing in a choir
[M] Et nox chorum suum aperuit

[Pre-Chorus]
[F] Dark one
[M] Tenebra duae
[F] Dark three
[M] Quis nos vocat?
[F] It is hunger
[M] Umbra est
[F] It is guilt
[M] In nobis ambobus

[Chorus]
[M] Tenebra, tenebra, tenebra
[F] Dark became us
[M] Tenebra, tenebra, tenebra
[F] Deep inside us
[M] Si tres unum fiunt
[F] Who pays the price?
[M] Tenebra, tenebra, tenebra
[F] And the world in anguish

[Bridge]
[M] Si cecidero, mecum cade
[F] If I lie, then lie with me too
[M] Tres pugiones in una manu
[F] Three destinies on the same train
[M] Rex tuus sum sine corona
[F] I am your saint without peace
[M] Tenebra, tenebra, tenebra
[F] And nothing turns back

[Final Chorus]
[M] Tenebra, tenebra, tenebra
[F] Dark became us
[M] Tenebra, tenebra, tenebra
[F] Deep inside us
[M] Si tres unum fiunt
[F] The whole abyss is born
[M] Tenebra, tenebra, tenebra
[F] Our name is the third
