Into the Black

The first time I looked
Into the eyes of the beast
A strange sensation
Filled my body and my soul.
One man can't tell me how to live;
The longest day
can't bring me to my knees.

And I take it,
running away from the hound.
Unthinkable vision
exhibit the fortress around.
In this warrior reside the gates of hell,
In this prison and in the doom of his eyes.

He who fights with monsters
Take care lest he thereby become a monster.

To rest and feel the falling,
To rest and back again into the black.
And the lights are burning
Until we cry out into the black.
To rest and feel the falling
Until we cry out into the black.

Burn my soul
when the sky turns red.
Vulgar men roaming close to my way.
The last one was buried alive;
From his grave he reminds me where to step.

And I take it,
running away from the hound.
Unthinkable vision
exhibit the fortress around.
In this warrior reside the gates of hell,
In this prison and in the doom of his eyes.

If you gaze long into an abyss,
The abyss also gazes into you.

To rest and feel the falling,
To rest and back again into the black.
And the lights are burning
Until we cry out into the black.
To rest and feel the falling,
To rest and back again.
And the lights are burning
Until we cry out into the black.
To rest and feel the falling
Until we cry out into the black.
