Eternity of nightmares

Shield me in loneliness, I pray

Cradled by illusions

I will murder reality

My wings are tainted, feathered black

Pain, the hidden release

Reflect my sorrow in your eyes

Ruby droplets descend gracefully

I smile in the darkness

Return me to the earth as your sacrifice

My soul will cascade from the heavens

Your guardian of night

Your dreams are my tears

Burning fragile lines of regret

I am fortune's fool

The slave of fate.
