And There Was Light - Illnath

And there was light

And the darkness that

Followed blinded my eyes

The night made we trustworthy

And hid all my lies

I called the seventh of the eight

And gave him my offer

So cold were the feelings

I bore inside after I'd lost her

Sometimes I still can hear

His voices calling

Calling me from everywhere

And now and then

I feel my soul slowly slipping

Out of myself into his

Hell claws at my window

And makes me forget

To tell her of the deal

And the conditions I met and now

It's far too late to tell her

What's going on here

Somehow I'm almost looking forward to

When this is over

"I felt my ghost cross over

And knew he was near

And across the river

I could see him standing there"

There And was light

And the blackness

That followed blinded her eyes

The night drew her to me

And we met in the dark

And this "why am I here

" where the words she said

A kiss told her responsible

For her being dead

She cried in silence and wiped

I away her tears

She felt my cold hand

Amplifying her fear

She knew where she was

And cursed belovedher

And all of a sudden it all was over

Sometimes I still can hear

His voices calling

Calling me from everywhere

And now and then

I feel my soul slowly slipping

Out of myself into his hell

"I know he's waiting there for me

In his limbo between

Destination and reality"
