The Dark Host

The dark host where green stands tall

The emotion of Summer fades

Conscience versus consequence

With a pure possession of fall

This is the law, the law of the land

Where Angels earn their keep

The dark light, the dark light curse

We cheated our way to midnight

Enjoy the season before Winter arrives

And bitter cold kills vibrant life

We await our ghost, and it will bring pain

I hope you enjoy your fall

This is the law, the law of the land

Where Angels earn their keep

The dark light, the dark light curse

We cheated our way to midnight

Black is the soul of a dying sun, just before aphotic

calm

The moment the darkness arrives, be strong and be bold

Remember the day, you said "forever?"

It's so unclear exactly what you meant

Cloud cover erased the sunlight

It's much too late to wish for day

No one's listening to empty prayers

Autumn's spirit gathers our hearts

Here we are in the absence of light

Where the night's chill touches our skin

This is the time where nothing matters

When clouds cover in nightly shade

Where are the friends who promised loyalty?

I never realized how wonderful it was

I look back on that day of promise

And now I understand "Forever."

Black is the soul of a dying sun, just before aphotic

calm

The moment the darkness arrives, be strong and be bold
