The night falls as if slain by the sun,
Entwined are we.
The salvation for which you pine,
Flares once, then dies.
Smothered by a velvet ebon nothingness.
All hopes must die
Your heart desires no more.
How could you not understand?
Shadows surround us, crying,
Sanctuary.
The night falls as if slain by the sun
Soulless are we,
The light for which you lust,
Flares once, then dies,
Swept away by the all-emcompassing dark
All love must surely perish.
Your love is no more,
How could you leave me?
Lost souls surround us, crying,
We have lost our light.
