In the Absence of Light Lyrics

by Eira

When love fades

Was it truly ever there?

Withered like my soul that day

When all color seemed to fade away

Crestfallen, standing in my loneliness

When will the echo fade..

Pale eyes

I wander without a soul

Standing in your ashes

Oceans blue no more

Never saw the morning rise

You were nothing but lies

A cunning disguise

I saw nothing in your eyes

As sorrow escaped from my lips

Her silent ghost did vanish

And I saw only her fading footprints

In the falling snow

Another night has befallen us

You lay awake in the night

A voice is heard in the absence of light

Persuading you to go

Thrice have you left into the dark

Ever wandering through the halls

The curtain of night would not rise

The veil of darkness unbound

This is the reason I turned my eye

You never saw the morning rise

The night was all you ever knew

And death was the voice that was calling for you
