Moonlight

And soft as satin lace
Your breath is in the air
And the fear is on your face
The moment's come and gone
To turn and run away
You whisper out three words
Like the last you'll ever say

The highway lays ahead
The city fades behind
Fading fast like memories
A story in rewind
The lines begin to blur
The pavement's slick with doubt
The wheel begins to turn
And the moonlight's running out

I feel your soft touch in the moonlight
Hush talk after midnight
She's midnight's mistress and we wither in her hands
Suck lust from a snakebite
Where is our white light?
(That's what you get for)
Wide-eyed faith

Suddenly the sound
Is met with blinding light
Music cuts the air
They're howling at the sky
And beckoning those hellbound
They call us to eternity
Like lost souls to be found

They feast upon the flesh
They drink up all the wine
They whisper secrets of the past
And become something divine
You and I consent
The wind becomes a gale
I swallow blood that's not my own
And I pass beyond the veil

I feel your soft touch in the moonlight
Hush talk after midnight
She's midnight's mistress and we wither in her hands
Suck lust from a snakebite
Where is our white light?
(That's what you get for)
Wide-eyed faith
