Song lyrics
I caught sight of my reflection, I caught it in the window 
I saw the darkness in my heart 
I saw the signs of my undoing 
They had been there from the start 

And the darkness still has work to do 
The knotted chord's untying 
The heated and the holy, oh, they're sitting there on high 
So secure with everything they're buying 

In the blood of Eden, lie the woman and the man 
With the man in the woman and the woman in the man 
In the blood of Eden, lie the woman and the man 
We wanted the the union 
Oh, the union of the woman, the woman and the man 

My grip is surely slipping, I think I've lost my hold 
Yes, I think I've lost my hold 
I cannot get insurance any more 
They don't take credit, only gold 

Is that a dagger or a crucifix I see 
You hold so tightly in your hand 
And all the while the distance grows between you and me 
I do not understand 

In the blood of Eden, lie the woman and the man 
With the man in the woman and the woman in the man 
In the blood of Eden, lie the woman and the man 
We wanted the the union 
Oh, the union of the woman, the woman and the man 

At my request you take me in 
In that tenderness, I am floating away 
No certainty, nothing to rely on, holding still for a moment 
What a moment this is 
Oh, for a moment of forgetting, a moment of bliss 

I can hear the distant thunder of a million unheard souls 
Of a million unheard souls 
Watch each one reach for creature comfort 
For the filling of their holes 

In the blood of Eden, lie the woman and the man 
I feel the man in the woman and the woman in the man 
In the blood of Eden, lie the woman and the man 
We wanted the the union of the woman and the man 

In the blood of Eden, lie the woman and the man 
I feel the man in the woman and the woman in the man 
In the blood of Eden, lie the woman and the man 
I feel the man in the woman and the woman in the man 

In the blood of Eden, we have done everything we can 
In the blood of Eden, so we end as we began 
With the man in the woman and the woman in the man 
It was all for the union 
Oh, the union of the woman, the woman and the man
