With wings removed he falls through midnight’s sky
Tumbling toward a dying earth

Screams of anguish lost within winds tongue
His fall is observed by none but I

A layer within the cloak of the night I watch
A sheet within the blanket of darkness I listen

The fallen's hate washes over me as he passes by
Coating me in emotions of lightlessness

Removed from Shallows above
Leaving a streak of darkness in nights sky

As he reaches earth below
A cry is raised above nights wind

I look above to an eclipse of lightlessness
A myriad of wingless tumble through the sky

The apostate seraphs to join their master below
An endless cry of agony tears through my ears

As one they reach the dying earth below
Their fall shatters the planet to pieces

Its heart is broken
Its blood soaks the fallen

Each night I sit at this table
Quietly place my candle upon its top

Strike a match and gently start a flame
My beacon in the darkest corner of this room

A sign to those that drift through darkness
An invitation to sit with me

Come be with me
Join your light with mine

For this night will never end
In the darkest corner of this inn

All travelers pass through
Though none visit my corner

As you pass on by
Out through the door

I extinguish my light
Wrap my cloak around me

Pass through the doorway behind you
Into everlasting night pouring rain

The sound is forever calming
It silences footfalls oh so close to you

Upon a ragged cut path through trees
You stop and draw forth your light

My darkness descends upon you
Knocking both candles yours and mine into dark water

Drowning once flawless flames
Until both candles go out

My light is dead
My darkness consumes you

I am left upon this path
With nothing but rain amid darkness

Candle forever lost
I withdraw into trees

Waiting for those that drift through darkness
Come be with me

Travelers pass me
None ever leave me

Rain will never end
In the darkest corner of this night

I stand upon a plain of darkness
Listening to the wind twist through trees I cannot see

Silver rain pours down
Encasing me within unearthly light

A cloak of separateness weaves itself into my skin
A blanket of rain falls upon the trees

So that within this plain of darkness
There is light

The forest grows bright
Each branch gives light

Eyes turned down
Palms faced out

Light drowns my pain
Light will not surrender unto my night

So I stand upon a plain of darkness
Surrounded by silver trees

I wait for the clouds to pass overhead
For rain to come to an end

So that light will lose this fight
And I will remain trapped within my night

Above the entire world
Held onto the cliff of life by fingers

I climb toward an unreachable end
Toward an end with you

To feel the air of darkness swirl around us
To interlock fingers with an angel in night

But my heart is breaking down
Rocks crack beneath my fingers

A hand wrenched loosed
I've spun to face the night

Etched in darkness I see nothing
Yet I know what lies below

An entire world of agony
Pain so great I spent my life climbing away

Up into night I rose
Choosing to follow you taken by death

Cradled in his arms you left
He washed my tears from you

My hold begins to slip
Fingers start to break

I tumble through darkness
Falling away from you

Through clouds I pass
I see what should be my end

An eternity of pain bound to my shoulders
Drives me into dagger filled ground

My screams unheard
Tear through silent night

I rip myself from hells covered ground
But soon I must walk

Walk back to the cliff
Back to the climb

My broken wings will never fly
My forsaken soul will never die
