Metamorphosis

A metamorphosis has come to light
For better or for worse
Lurking deep within the dead of night
A blessing or a curse?

Won't be the first time and won't be the last
Now shed your broken wings
You can change your future and your past
But it doesn't change a thing

Rising up from the fire
A darkness comes over me
Look into the blackest mirror
Time's the one enemy

Maybe once an angel in disguise
A change of hands, a change of heart
Staring back at me with stranger's eyes
Tearing my world apart

Empty pages on the edge of night
Starting a new verse
A metamorphosis has come to light
For better or for worse

Rising up from the fire
A darkness comes over me
Look into the blackest mirror
Time's the one enemy

Still searching
Uncertain, don't know the reason why
Surrender
Remember, I can't say you didn't try
Still searching
Uncertain, don't know the reason why
Surrender
Remember, I can't say you didn't try

Change the rules, dancing fools
Howling at the moon
Isolate, take the bait
Accept impending doom
Vile, corrupt, self-destruct
Nothing you can do
Wicked birth of Hell on earth
Becoming something new

Rising up from the fire
A darkness comes over me
Look into the blackest mirror
Time's the one enemy

Rising up from the fire
A darkness comes over me
Look into the blackest mirror
Time's the one enemy
