Black Angel of the Night Lyrics


My dark angel when you are gone

Once left what immortality leaves behind

Eternal loneliness and suffering we are all

Endlessly dying, bound to the ties of misery

Blows of laughter, banter and giggling

Mock me to my most ample thoughts

White flame that burns hotter than my nerves can feel

Regret is a lesson that can only be burned away by the beckoning of day

Cumbersome this guilt lives with me and my loneliness

Heavy, I feel myself drowning at my own expense

The suffering I felt all along, for all this time that passed

The same I had built up all the years, is mine to tear apart

With cases of blood spilt, flammable with each conviction

Not crosses or light or even time can change that

My paths bring me where I take them and they know where I’ve been

After these lifetimes I am the vanquisher of guilt and advocate for God herself

Love is her gentle touch, for I am cursed with for eternity

May I greet you with a kiss of death and pray for its sweet release

Why don’t they understand my suffering

Consumer of the flesh

How do you make amends

Consumer

Who takes and takes gorging ’til none are left

Of Flesh

So pure and defenseless you hunt for iron rich blood

Unnecessary bloodshed upon your teeth and tongue

When will you understand

How do you make amends

With all the lives that you took

Cumbersome this guilt lives with me and my loneliness

Heavy, I feel myself drowning at my own expense

The suffering I felt all along, for all this time that passed

The same I had built up all the years, is mine to tear apart

They’re lost for eternity

These souls were taken by immortality

Poor mortal souls who could be vanquished

Alas, the same fate could not be brought upon me

But by myself, I swear to a life of suffering

Eternal life, I pledge to thee

Be sweet, be sweet

Black angel of the night

Remember your last flight

Meet your maker

Your final fate

These wings of black

That cloak of black

Those daggered teeth

Sank into me

I’ll remember your face
