MALICE DAWNS ON TWILIT SORROW

There's a darkness calling from the face of the deep
A kindred heartbeat in this chamber that I keep
Am
I
Cold
Enough to do what must be done?
Am
I
Just
Dead enough under the sun?

am i dead enough
for you?

Sign of doom from the moon marks my doom with a murder
Of black crows from below of vile shows echo thunder

Malice dawns on twilit sorrow
And taints the crime scene tomorrow

Wash me away with draconian tears
And embrace me close with all of your fears
Falling free to the end of the rope
There is nothing left, miscued

May I dare to hope
If I'm dead enough

FOR YOU

The night has a harlot with eyes like the abyss
Sanguinary beckon me closer for one last kiss
Am
I
Weak
Enough to succumb to the black?
Am
I
Strong
Enough to never come back?

am i strong enough
for you?

The stone grey on my grave with decay weeping venom
Anguished cries, why oh why, as you die deny heaven

Malice dawns on twilit sorrow
And taints the crime scene tomorrow

Wash me away with draconian tears
And embrace me close with all of your fears
Falling free to the end of the rope
There is nothing left, miscued

May I dare to hope
If I'm dead enough

FOR YOU

REACH OUT TO TOUCH GOD
REACH OUT FOR SALVATION
REACH OUT FOR SOME HOPE
AND IT PUSHES YOU AWAY

INTO THE ARMS OF DAMNATION

Malice dawns on twilit sorrow
And taints the crime scene tomorrow

Wash me away with draconian tears
And embrace me close with all of your fears
Falling free to the end of the rope
There is nothing left

May I dare to hope
If I'm dead enough

FOR YOU
