Echoes In the Dark Lyrics

Life is running down her legs
I lunge forward, blade in hand
Drenched in gore, drunk on blood and power
A flash lights up the deep, concealing black
Despite my drifting consciousness…
Control

Tonight there is madness in the wind
Echoing through the dark
Hatred cannot be discerned from love
This is the deep night

So many frozen years ago
I chose to walk the twisting path
In sober moments I reflect
On regrets time has smuggled in
I still stand tall, espousing my perfection
No quest will yield a truer kind of man
I embrace the beast I am…

I settle into deeper burns
Seeking comfort in the pain
Long bereft of crippling fear
Boldly striding through the dark
I know insouciance can be quite fatal
I have accepted future consequence
To test myself I drop the reins…
Control

Deep night
Deeper burns
Echoes in the dark
