I Am the Night lyrics

I am the night, despiser of light

I fall over you in the blink of an eye

the tunnel of love is flickering dim

as the blood in your veins is runnin so thin

shadows of body and soul

a command over life that no one else holds

I’m stained by the dirt of the grave

pray all you want but I won’t go away

twilight descending, I vanquish the sun

there’s nowhere to hide, nowhere to run

a demon of opiate dreams

you hear my whisper as loud as a scream

chorus:

I am the night

say your goodbyes

this is the hour

darkness devours

the pain

just call my name

I am the night, deceiver of sight

forever in darkness, death is denied

in the tunnel of love my rats make their home

we measure your worth by the flesh that you will sow

chorus

this omen of ill, you know it so well

know it by heart, by touch and by smell

I am the final demise

make no mistake when you gaze into my eyes

chorus

just call my name
