(Hail the sovereign darkness)

(O ferryman, o keeper of our souls)

(Hail the dark one)

(Hear our conflagrant reverence)

(Hail the dark one)

Sweet November whispers through Autumn's crown

Through unbenighted castle grounds

Silent cells house my shame

Below the surface, locked away

There lies the truth, the villain's reign

Where sorrows bear my name

What is it to be known, to be seen, to forgive?

Unbound by conditions, to live

Without aching for home

Crumbling within

Fearing the demons beneath my skin?

Sing through lonesome winters

Disguise the sound of unrequited beaten-downs

Secrecy breeds disgrace

What was lost can't be replaced

The chains of truth you never faced

Tomorrow never came

What is it to be known, to be seen, to forgive?

Unbound by conditions

To live without aching for home

Crumbling within

Fearing the demons beneath my skin?

What is it to feel safe, both in body and in mind?

Unburdened by your guilt?

Surviving the aching for home

Not knowing why

Searching for something you may never find?

What is it to be known, to be seen, to forgive?

Unbound by conditions

To live without aching for home

Crumbling within

Fearing the demons beneath my skin?

Silent cells house my shame

Below the surface, locked away

There lies the truth, the villain's reign

Where sorrows bear my name

(Hail the sovereign darkness)

(O ferryman, o keeper of our souls)

(Hail the dark one)

Where sorrows bear my name

(Hear our conflagrant reverence)

Where sorrows bear my name

(Hail the dark one)
