Lyrics
Light Words, Dark Graves
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
Midnight and the stars pulsate
They radiate my contempt for the land
I discharge a breath and clench my fists
Then walk towards where no stars can be seen
There, here is no light
And still there will be no love
They told me I could escape
Their light words-dark graves
Midnight and my back won't turn
I'll move forward if it means death
I ran from my contempt, I ran from my disdain
To turn back now would be self-shame
Follow the road of light
Their words burning in my ears
They told me I could escape
Their light words-dark graves
Midnight, lead me to death
To life
Starlight, fade out and die
As love like life
