Till the Morning Light

I took a little bit and now I need some more
I swear I heard your voice coming up through the floor
Rain on the window pane and blood is on the door
And I've been staring into my shadow for - two days or more

I forgot your name
You're the one I love
Walk to me quietly, invisibly, forward
Show me your hands
I don't care who you are
I'll lay in heaven's arms once and for all

But in my darkest of dreams I do the things that paint this room red
And I won't ever give in until the candle burns right through my hands
But in my darkest of dreams I do the things that paint these eyes red
And I won't ever give in
No, I won't ever give in
(No, I won't ever give in
No, I won't ever give in...)

Don't you dare hold your breath
For many only speak and then do nothing
In the red of eyes, in the dead of night, stare into infinity and watch it collapse
(From the pale and bloodless look -
The innocent lives you took)
Back to where they belong
In the arms of hell
Back to where they belong...

And I awoke disfigured and I prayed that the sun would never shine
And I resemble a saviour transmutating into another kind
Premeditated unconscious enclosures
Searing deep into my retina, destroying
The innocent everlasting melodious prophecy
Seven minutes to the hour

Let darkness fall on this place where we dwell
Did I awake or go to sleep - I can't tell

Don't even speak there's someone in the hall
Thank god he's finally come to kill us all

But in my darkest of dreams I do the things that paint this room red
And I won't ever give in until the candle burns right through my hands
But in my darkest of dreams I do the things that paint these eyes red
And I won't ever (give in)
No, I won't ever (give in)
No, I won't (ever give in)
No, I won't (ever give in)

Demented and decomposing
Devilish, darkened and deconstructing
Deanimated, desensitized, so detrimental in denial and beauty
The haunting lament of the foreboding
Searing deep into my retina, destroying
I swallow razors and drink the blood of an angel
I drank a little bit and I had a vision
Pathetic prolific ways
I fill my pockets with all these incisions
Now I've been locked in here for days
But it's not all that simple
When I keep falling in love
With the mistakes and I'm afraid that I'm awake -
And fate is floating above

(Screaming on down to the second floor
'Cause I got this fear
Let me hear you say
Screaming on down to the second floor
That I need some sleep
Let me hear you say
Screaming on down to the second floor
'Cause I got this fear
Let me hear you say
Screaming on down to the second floor
'Cause I got these visions...)

The humanity in your eyes
As you begin to realize your frailty's
Photographs in the back of your mind there they will dwell
Marking in beauty and kept only for deception
I sink my teeth into every single love that I've had
Mark this day...

The attributes of this ritualistic prison
Cover your windows in blankets that you tore from your bed
Hiding, shaking, never resting, pale as walls
Your thoughts are etched in -
Crawling on the ground I'm searching for someone to take me

Back to where they belong...
Back to where they belong...
