And There Was Light

And there was light

and the darkness that followed blinded my eyes

The night

made me trustworthy and hid all my lies

I called

the seventh of the eight and gave him my offer

So cold

were the feelings I bore inside after I'd lost her

Sometimes

I still can hear

his voices calling, calling me from everywhere

And now and then

I feel my soul

slowly slipping out of myself into his...

Hell

close my eyes and makes me forget

To tell

her of the deal and the conditions I met

And now

it's far too late to tell her what's going on here

Somehow

I'm almost looking forward to when this is over

"I felt my ghost cross over, and knew he was near,

and across the river I could see him standing there."

(solo)

And there was light

and the blackness that followed blinded her eyes

The night

drew her to me and we met in the dark

And this

why am I here? were the words that she said

A kiss

told her I was responsible for her being dead

She cried in silence and I wiped away her tears

She felt my cold hand amplifying her fears

She knew where she was and she cursed her beloved

And all of a sudden it all was over

Sometimes

I still can hear

his voices calling, calling me from everywhere

And now and then

I feel my soul

slowly slipping out of myself into his Hell

I know he's waiting there for me

in his limbo between destination and reality."
