lyrics

Lament of Immortality (Suicide of the Dawn)

The darkest shade of night
Unveils its despair once again
The hunger pains you
You must feed again

Blood again stains your soul
Are you satisfied?
No, your desire still burns strong
For suicide of the dawn

One heart's desire, still a thousand years old
Immortals cannot die; bloody tears that which you cry
For love is forbidden
The lament of immortality

You prey upon another victim
Another life you will claim
To another moon you can wake
So you can feed again

You long for the final sunrise
To feel it burn away your eyes
You drank life's wine
You will live for one more day

You almost hear the moon's mocking laughter
The trail of blood follows you, the cries of anguish consume you
Forever you long
For suicide of the dawn

Crawl into your coffin
Slumber is your escape
No more will the love
Or heartache rape!

One heart's desire, still a thousand years old
Immortals cannot die; bloody tears that which you cry
For love is forbidden
The lament of immortality

You almost hear the moon's mocking laughter
The trail of blood follows you, the cries of anguish consume you
Forever you long
For suicide of the dawn

They have been compared to Inkubus Sukkubus & Evanescence. ... more
