Daylight

Another dawn breaks chasing shadows As my thoughts begin to decompose I no longer see your pain in the mirror Death eternal we lie silent in repose Is it love or madness that drives me To seek the freeing cut of Atropos? Every day I pray for death Forgotten warmth of lover's breath And I miss the ones I love Missing their arms around me And though the years pass by again I can feel it in my soul The light of day is lost Time has only served to grow my fangs Racing thoughts never freed from endless hunger pangs And I can't resist them for much longer With each new nightfall they grow ever stronger Every night I kill again I prey upon my dear old friends And I miss the times with you Please go on without me And though my heart is black and cold There's this longing in my soul With every life I'm forced to take Simply sharpens my own stake After centuries of this frozen life Thoughts of who I was and who I once loved Begin to slip away Mere bitter memories of an archaic age On I linger like a plague (Woah) Life eternal I have squandered Dust and ashes left behind Forgotten in the sands of time Cursed verse of ancient rime Their death my life! Take flight! With flitting wings in darkness A shadow from the mountain, I've come To feast upon the vale And as you breathe in silver moonlight And feel these eyes upon you They tell My cold and bitter tale
