Fading Into Night
In the middle of a midnight, smoke invading my head,
I felt you coming even closer, but you were gone instead
Wrapped up in the curtains, I saw my soul descend,
To a place where many men have wandered,
But where no man has been.
I hear your conscience calling, seeping into the spaces,
I see your body fall into the walls, twisted into so many places
We are closest to the nights ally, fading into the rest,
Some say we’re the ones who are cursed,
Some say we are the blessed
Sinners are the many, and saints don’t exist
The bad are all around us, the good are only missed
Nothing is the same now, nothing can ever be right
The world is spinning backwards, fading into night
Bound into fire, born into hell
We are the ones who know the secrets, but can never tell
Burned under water, constantly on your feet
And no matter where you run,
You can never escape the heat
Run to the shadows, watch them evaporate,
They pour into your thoughts but it’s only too late
Silver silk lines nighttime,
Blackness drives the day
The way you’re going only leads to the dark,
But it’s the only way
Sinners are the many, saints don’t exist
The bad are all around us, the good are only missed
Nothing is the same now, nothing can be right
The world is spinning backwards, fading into night
Now, we’re silent, praying for the light
Though we know it’ll never come, and we’re just trapped in night
Staring at the window, though I can’t see through,
Staring back into my memories, though I can’t remember the view
Alone and in the darkness, we try to wish for the relief that is ours
And even though we want to, we just can’t see the stars
Not out of my mind, though out of sight,
Never forgetting when we faded into night
