Shades of Me - Illnath

This is the tale of death

Waiting to steal your last very precious breath

Have you ever seen the shade of you?

When you look at you do you see me too?

Have you ever seen the shade of me?

What did you see?

A thousand shades of me

Four shades entwined to be

You can never escape the need

To speak my name

Each and every one wear different shades

Take yours off and feel the sting of my blade

Be true to all beauty or beast

We all feast at the table, it has the shape of me

My shade is made of moonbeams and silence

Of life and of a million breaths

Of sunlight and four shades of death

Of life and a million breaths

Have you ever seen the shade of me?

What did you see?

A Thousand shades of me

Four shades entwined to be

You can never escape the need

To speak my name

I am the beast you must see

Your fears will end up feeding me

You can never escape the need

To speak my name

Quattuor umbras me
