Let me paint a picture of the perfect scene
Of hellfire and stars straight to infinity
Grab ahold the light like sand
Slipping out of your fingers and into my hands

Like a firework lost in the sky
Luminescent sparks that made the heavens cry
All that is left is your dying color
But still brighter than any other

Doesn't matter where we go
We'll just put on a show
You and I can defy gravity
This isn't our reality

Hurry, love, they're after us!
Don't look down it's disastrous
You and I can defy gravity
This isn't our...

There is a beast inside
Lying dormant, it cries
Forever stirring, still it lies
Brewing a storm, a great cacophony

Although it snarls with a smile
Beware it's charm, it's beguile
Until it wakes it will defile
Lest I give into tyranny

Weary, do I wonder
Will it consume me if I slumber?
With a cackle it lets me wander
To the edge of my sanity

Beyond the wall of thorns
My heart is wretchedly torn
As I am left to mourn
What is left of my humanity

It shuts too fast, this hollow door
Bringing with it nothing...

Light is more precious than life, so it seems
Blood streaked sky, is the start of it's requiem
The waning moon brings forth raging tides
All the rules on Earth I shall not abide

But when we lay weary from tears and blood-shed
We become a part of the living dead
Our demons will control us, let the blood-lust commence
At the break of dawn, our eye-lids fall in dreaded silence

As we march through the cold, pouring rain
We pass our comrades who have been slain
But all the fallen souls are unaware
That death is not freedom from despair
...

O shining star in my path
Protect me from daylight's wrath
Silence the fallen tears
Help me quell all my fears
Guide me through all that has been lost
I'll sacrifice everything at my cost
The bond of Truth, Love and Hope
Show me the way, show me the rope
Caress the twilight in the aftermath
O shining star in my path
