Burned by Light - Memento Mori

The fallen and graceless, the twisted and odd

Outcasts from heaven, abandoned by God

Wakeless in daylight, evoked by the night

When sneaking in shadows, they’re well out of sight

Wayward angels

Burned by light, blessed by night

Nocturnal seed, unholy breed

Burned by light, blessed by night

Nocturnal seed, unholy breed

Creeping and crawling, the shapeless and vague

What’s unseen by mankind still feared like the plague

Their spirits are strong and your flesh is so weak

Who dares to get close when their find is their keep

Wayward angels

Burned by light, blessed by night

Nocturnal seed, unholy breed

Burned by light, blessed by night

Nocturnal seed, unholy breed

Keep all of your lights lit when hundled in fear

The ancient and timeless, abstracted still near

If silence at twillight might lead you astray

When fooled by it’s stillness you won’t get away

Wayward angels

Burned by light, blessed by night

Nocturnal seed, unholy breed

Burned by light, blessed by night

Nocturnal seed, unholy breed
