As Shadows Call My Name Lyrics

Album: Unsunned

My heart was filled with emptiness

And my knife was resting before me

A soul which seemed too tired to live

Was ready to be released that very night

Lifeless Eyes was staring at the blade

Trying to decide if I should end it all

Would someone miss me if I left

Or should I continue this mortal lie

I had nothing in common with humans

What was the point to continue to breathe

Always an outcast, shun like the plague

An end in blood seemed the only way

But when I raised the blade to cut my throat

I heard the voices of shadows call my name

I stared into the night and saw the utmost dark

What none else had seen revealed itself to me

It filled my heart with spiteful emotions

Towards the rest of the human race

Destructive thoughts engulfed my mortality

As I understood  the true nature of my being

I was not a human like the rest

I was something more, far superior

The reincarnation of an ancient tyrant

The darkness lived through me

With newfound strength I rose fro the ground

Cleansed of all frailties that characterize a human

I found other use for my sharp blade

And once again the darkness lived

I looked at the world with different eyes

So cold and dark, glowing in the night

I chose the path the darkness made bright

As shadows called my name, the darksend lived
