dark figures haunt our dreams

dark nightmares mute our screams

darkest night will fall

darkened whispers call

black is the shade of night

colored in numbing fright

clouds fill the weeping sky

rain gives a drenching sigh

no relief

no salvation

no belief

no redemption

so pure the touch of pain

body aches as mind is slain

paleness of sightless eyes

gazes as cold as ice

forevermore the light has faded

source of life incinerated

stars have disappeared

silenced atmosphere

eat the fruit of death

we don't need another breath

stripped of beauty, stripped of grace

surrender to the cold embrace

no slumber for our kind

suffering is what we'll find

fires sear the tender flesh

drink the foulest bitterness
