In the Pale Moonlight



Dying in the pale moonlight
The so called light all but gone
The dying kiss of rejection
The angels are screaming
Oh, the waves rushed there, pulled your dying
soul
To a thousand pieces
Pitiful me, horrible soul
Lying under the touch of the dying light
The pain that laid dying on her face
The tears came in vain they promised for the
future
Time to open my eyes
Stop this life from dying
We are nothing, it seems
We are nothing, it seems
And why are they dying?
Is it because they loved you for so long?
Pitiful me, horrible soul
Lying under the touch of the dying light
The pain that laid dying on her face
The tears came in vain they promised for the
future
Somebody lied! Sneaking up on them
Somebody lied! Dying!
Pitiful me, horrible soul
Lying under the touch of the dying light
The pain that laid dying on her face
The tears came in vain they promised for the
future
