Black Tongue

Burned out my eyes
Cut off my tongue
Sealed them with all of the silver
And now I have none
You killed the life
You took the diamond
You killed the vine
Death of the...
You own the darkness
And taken my sight
Buried the stars undergound
Stolen the night
You can run to the sea
You can run to the forest
You can hide
But you'll never escape
You've run out of lies
You've run out of time
You killed the life
You took the diamond
You killed the vine
Death of the sun
