When Daylight Dies

Night is finally closing in, but I have no fear In the hour when the night falls Voices from the dark side are calling my name Slowly fading to the world where I belong Ebony rising, I close my eyes Flashing pictures of an old remembrance passing by On obsidian wings I fly, leave the gates behind Through the colonnades of eternity This is the end for me, I'm dying So I close my eyes, and I can see the shadows rise On black wings I fly, as I cross the dark sky So I close my eyes, and I can see the shadows rise When daylight dies, eternally As whispers surround me, see people I have known Remember times I had forgotten long ago Dark arms embrace my soul, emptiness fills my mind As the pulse of life is slowly fading Now a storm is rising Then he appears Cloaked in a robe of black Waiting to guide my soul from here Across the stream of life, to a kingdom beyond, back to the place of birth, So this the end for me, I'm dying So I close my eyes, and I can see the shadows rise On black wings I fly, as I cross the dark sky So I close my eyes, and I can see the shadows rise When daylight dies, eternally A world of silence, waits for me, the end in darkness, is my destiny As my life passes, before my eyes, from my birth, to the time I die From my cradle, to my grave, a little time, until the death embrace. Now my memories fade away, the past forgotten, a new life waits for me. Will I reincarnate, will I die forever, when I meet my fate, at the break of dawn. Soon I will now, if there is endless darkness, or there is blazing light. When daylight turns to night. Eternal Silence As my memories Fade to black Rising darkness And there is no turning back
