A dark veil
Over your eyes, signifies the first time I saw Hell
Now black sails arise, failed to recognize parts of you behind tall tales
A cold night through these marked trees
A rite of passage, my heart ceased
Obols placed in my eyes, before I arrive to die at the dark sea
Aeacus at the gate, sitting and ready to judge
Sealing eternity's fate, hatred is lesser than love
Sacred initiatives run, I feel for the sun
But see the images of women and children in blood
Oh god, please save my soul
Oh gods, I crave control
No lie, I've been flayed into a mold, of past experience
Witnessin empathy take its toll
You were there in the black dress, singing
As my soul took to the air, creating a vast demon
A Behemoth, that transformed from a sad being
Givin' up all of my energy, appease the queen who murdered me
I'm fillin' the cup with borrowed souls and dreams
I see Persephone, and I become Hades
Even when I sleep, I can't breathe in, or release it, 'cause you made me
You've stolen nectar from the skies (From the skies)
The human inside, the mind of an empty mortal
Transformed into a god
With regret I become the knight (Become the knight)
For the surfacing darkness inside of you
Solidify your right as the Hades bride
Your decision to call maliciousness an act of giving
Was the penance sentenced
I gave you realness, gave you forgiveness
But you're smoke and mirrors you don't see the difference
Your vision was to make me believe that everything I needed resided in you
I couldn't be more wrong, Been hating it so long, I steadily freefall
Taste the fruit of an eternal darkness in a mind confined
Truly gifted, yet I'm truly blind
Contemplating the roots of suicide, I lose the fight, the truth is I proved you right
I'm foolish, I could lose it, my
Composure's conclusive to suit the bride
The truth of illusions is through the eye
The noose is tight, but Zeus isn't choosin' sides
Fruit of the vine, the nectar of the gods
Given to only the individuals proven to go against the odds
Moving through time, I try to escape you
But your face stays a gate placed with great tools
Disfiguring the goddess, make sure that sentiment is rotting
And feelings steady fading
Became the god of the underworld for a girl
Why the hell did I let her change me
You've stolen nectar from the skies (From the skies)
The human inside, the mind of an empty mortal
Transformed into a god
With regret I become the knight (Become the knight)
For the surfacing darkness inside of you
Solidify your right as the Hades bride
The Hades Bride amplifies the night
And you can see all the souls in her eyes
