Alone In The Dark Tonight

Ten

This hallowed ground
A shallow grave to which we stumble
Time is the nemesis of man
We are eternal in this afterlife
Just moon-kissed shadows laced with sand
    
A love spurned brought an end to my world
For a thousand years
But ‘love-lost’ I returned
Now I yearn for light
    
Alone in the dark tonight
Tonight
Edified
Alone in the dark tonight
Tonight
Deified
Alone in the dark tonight
    
These marbled alabaster
Angels parch and crumble
The carved inscriptions fade unread
I walk the night shade scented paradise
This garden of the nameless dead
    
A love spurned brought an end to my world
For a thousand years
But ‘love-lost’ I returned
Now I yearn for light
    
Alone in the dark tonight
Tonight
Edified
Alone in the dark tonight
Tonight
Deified
Alone in the dark tonight
    
Alone in the dark tonight
Tonight
    
Alone in the dark tonight
Tonight
Edified
Alone in the dark tonight
Tonight
Deified
Alone in the dark tonight
    
(Tonight)
(Edified)
(Alone in the dark tonight)
(Tonight)
(Deified)
Alone in the dark tonight
