lyrics

Cast
From the light
The shadows reach out
Pulling me in
They lay me to rest
Pain
My anchor
Dragging me down
Eternal descent
To depths unknown
The further
I sink
The more it feels right
To surrender my soul
To this entity
Twisting
Perception
Revealing the path
That I must walk
To purge this agony


I feel my muscles
Begin to atrophy
To evolve beyond this form
Is my destiny

I reach into the darkness
I pull back my own heart
Dripping with corruption
My greatest work of art
I surrender to temptation
And turn my back on the light
My eyes glow with unholy fire
For I have become the...


...Night
Comes
To chase off the light
To cover the world
In a blanket of fear
Rest
Now
For soon it will end
As nightmares descend
To tear you to shreds
Shedding
My flesh
Embracing the fire
The carnal desire
To corrupt the weak
Damnation
My reward
For reaping these souls
My only goal
Is unleashing hell


I feel my muscles
Begin to atrophy
To evolve beyond this form
Is my destiny


I reach into the darkness
I pull back my own heart
Dripping with corruption
My greatest work of art
I surrender to temptation
And turn my back on the light
My eyes glow with unholy fire
For I have become the...

...Night...


Circum-
stances
Led me down this path
A thirst for
Enlightenment
Curious to a fault
Darkest
Discoveries
Revelling in the rush
Forbidden
Knowledge
A bargain with the unknown


I
Will
Become
The enemy of life
I
Will
Become
The avatar of strife

(Throat singing)
Oh
I hear the Umbra calling
Appealing to my demons
Beckoning
Me to come closer
Oh
I feel my flesh dissolving
I have become the Spectre
My metamorphosis
Is all but complete


I reach into the darkness
I pull back my own heart
Dripping with corruption
My greatest work of art
I surrender to temptation
And turn my back on the light
My eyes glow with unholy fire
For I have become the night

The shackles of mortality
No longer hold me a slave
I've freed myself from this prison
And taken control of my fate
I've found the pinnacle of being
In the depths of depravity
I've reached apotheosis
For I have become the night
