[INTRO]
(Whispers)
Ah... ah...
When the light dies...
The shadows open their eyes...
[VERSE 1]
Among the ruins where silence makes its home
I watch the sky wear its tattered skin alone
Candles weep their wax upon an empty shrine
Every hope was lost beneath the cold of time
Chains are singing underneath the broken ground
Every step repeats a past forever bound
My reflection no longer knows my name
The night whispers, "Only this remains of you."
[PRE-CHORUS]
Darkness never asks forgiveness
It devours every heart
I close my eyes so I can witness
What the light could never show
[CHORUS]
We are children of the shadows!
Children of darkness!
Born among the ashes,
Unafraid of loneliness!
Burn the skies!
Extinguish the sun!
The night is our revolution!
We are children of the shadows!
Children of darkness!
[VERSE 2]
The wind carries ancient vows
Buried deep beneath the stones and sorrows
Ravens draw their circles in the sky
While the world learns how to fall apart
My blood beats like a raging storm
Embracing endless emptiness
Every flame will die someday
But the shadows will forever remain
[BRIDGE]
There are no chains that can imprison the night
There is no blade that can cut through the gloom
When the final glimmer fades away
Only the eternal...
Darkness...
[BREAKDOWN]
Shadows!
Darkness!
Shadows!
Darkness!
Raise your voices!
Break the ground!
The abyss answers with its own song!
[FINAL CHORUS]
We are children of the shadows!
Children of darkness!
No star can ever extinguish
Our curse!
Burn the skies!
Extinguish the sun!
Nothing withstands the heart of the abyss!
We are children of the shadows!
And the darkness...
Will live forever... within us.
[OUTRO]
(Whispers)
When the last light disappears...
It will not be the end...
It will be... the beginning.
