DARK DAYS

DARK DAYS

Dark days
The willful vulture
Picking our fragile bones
With no regard for burials

Dark days
The subtle serpent
Coiled up and ready to strike
Venom for which there is no cure

CHORUS
No light, no light
Piercing the dark veil of night
What’s yet to come remains unknown
No light, no light
Robbing the last trace of sight
Our curse to roam ever alone

Dark days
The starving jackal
Feral with desperate means
A hunger ever unfulfilled

Dark days
The cunning corvid
Cackling with hideous ease
At misfortunes befallen us

CHORUS
No light, no light
Piercing the dark veil of night
What’s yet to come remains unknown
No light, no light
Robbing the last trace of sight
We walk this world ever alone

BRIDGE
The lonely shadows stretched like spindly fingers
My hand was forced once daylight fled
Ah, but such a black I could not remember
Anchored around my heart like lead

CHORUS
