As soon as the fading dark surrounds me

I go insane, wishing for the light

The thorns as a burden around my soul

Bury the present struggle for sight



Emotions, seen by few

After a night of lies

Accompany the morning's dew

The dark leaves my presence dry



Fear, as soon as the night surrounds me

Fading away, into eternal suffering

Shades of pale ebony, never to be seen by mortal men



While the fear slowly takes its toll

All visions from the past are falling away

The black path followed ahead

Will soon show its fading encumbrance



Never before could the omen

Foresee the pain left behind

The solitude of eyes staring

Grieves the mind eternally



The fear that grips me, never to be seen again

Fades with the sight of its death, their souls recur the faith

Temptations faced in the flesh, never grant us madness



As soon as the fading dark surrounds me

I go insane, wishing for the light

The thorns as a burden around my soul

Bury the present struggle for sight
