Under The Black Sun
Dejected remains we hold
Calamity ensnares all
Peaceful nights we are sold,
Laid to rest by nightfall
Broken free of merit
Thrust into destruction
Faceless sadist so twilit,
As soon flutters the black sun
How quickly we turn
So quickly to learn
What we all yearn
To take and to burn
How vile we've been
Yet here we still grin
Anything to win
Through treacherous sins
For all the gold our souls we'd sell,
A coin for you to take my breath
Our deteriorating health;
Another victim of the dance of death
All through life we've feigned to requite,
How we've transgressed to be malign
To deceive and to steal we lie;
Forever morality in decline
To break and to stay
A hero manqué
Silver tongued forte
To send dismay
Wicked virtues we uphold
Heart of darkness now open
Bare hourglass we hold,
Under the grim, black sun
Calamity ensnares all
Peaceful nights we are sold,
Laid to rest by nightfall
Broken free of merit
Thrust into destruction
Faceless sadist so twilit,
As soon flutters the black sun
How quickly we turn
So quickly to learn
What we all yearn
To take and to burn
How vile we've been
Yet here we still grin
Anything to win
Through treacherous sins
For all the gold our souls we'd sell,
A coin for you to take my breath
Our deteriorating health;
Another victim of the dance of death
All through life we've feigned to requite,
How we've transgressed to be malign
To deceive and to steal we lie;
Forever morality in decline
To break and to stay
A hero manqué
Silver tongued forte
To send dismay
Wicked virtues we uphold
Heart of darkness now open
Bare hourglass we hold,
Under the grim, black sun
