Chasing the Night - Neonfly

No one looks twice at the runt of the litter

An evil cradling, a saviour embittered

The dark is stealing the light

Fear let you in but your secret’s not for sale

Madman chasing the night

Dead souls give birth to a world beyond the pale

The fools entrusted the keys to the kingdom

Blind men who planted the seeds of destruction

Standing alone and you’re caught in my dream

Sleeping at night and I can’t hear you scream

Sacrifice you and I’d sacrifice me

You’re a drop in the ocean of my vanity

You scarred us all

But then you rose without a trace

The dark is stealing the light

Fear let you in but your secret’s not for sale

Madman chasing the night

Dead souls give birth to a world beyond the pale

You had it planned

Planned from the start

You took a chance

And burnt your heart away

A million men

Just couldn’t stop

The chosen one

Who lives to be obeyed

Another lie

Deceives the eye

But two wrongs can’t make a right

A blackened heart

Too late to hide

The loneliness inside…

And if you want it

I know you’re gonna take it

Ride the road to ruin

Greed is your salvation

Stop it!

Are words you can’t conceive of

Ends defy the means

We’re marching to damnation

Suffer!

The ones that you ignored

The ones without a hope

The child without a future

Nothing!

Can satisfy the hunger

That destroys the peace for paranoia

In faraway places, hidden from sight

A burning ambition snuffs out a life

A smiling face masks the stench of corruption

A rejects dream brings a world to extinction

Standing alone and you’re caught in my dream

Sleeping at night and I can’t hear you scream

Sacrifice you and I’d sacrifice me

You’re a drop in the ocean of my vanity
