The Letters - King Crimson Lyrics

[Verse 1]
With quill and silver knife
She carved a poison pen
Wrote to her lover's wife:
"Your husband's seed has fed my flesh."

[Verse 2]
As if a leper's face
That tainted letter graced
The wife with choke-stone throat
Ran to the day with tear-blind eyes

[Instrumental Bridge]

[Verse 3]
Impaled on nails of ice
And raked o'er emerald fire
The wife with soul of snow
With steady hands begins to write:

[Verse 4]
"I'm still, I need no life
To serve on boys and men
What's mine was yours is dead
I take my leave of mortal flesh. "1
