Novembers Doom - The Dark Host

The dark host where green stands tall The emotion of Summer fades Conscience versus consequence With a pure possession of fall This is the law, the law of the land Where Angels earn their keep The dark light, the dark light curse We cheated our way to midnight Enjoy the season before Winter arrives And bitter cold kills vibrant life We await our ghost, and it will bring pain I hope you enjoy your fall This is the law, the law of the land Where Angels earn their keep The dark light, the dark light curse We cheated our way to midnight Black is the soul of a dying sun, just before aphotic calm The moment the darkness arrives, be strong and be bold Remember the day, you said “forever?” It’s so unclear exactly what you meant Cloud cover erased the sunlight It’s much too late to wish for day No one’s listening to empty prayers Autumn’s spirit gathers our hearts Here we are in the absence of light Where the night’s chill touches our skin This is the time where nothing matters When clouds cover in nightly shade Where are the friends who promised loyalty? I never realized how wonderful it was I look back on that day of promise And now I understand “Forever.” Black is the soul of a dying sun, just before aphotic calm The moment the darkness arrives, be strong and be bold
