The light fades behind the moon My heart is once again tainted It is as if the darkness assumes My soul is to be repainted It's claws thick and stained by blood Like a werewolf it howls sadly at the sky I thought then it understood, but I plea, I beg, dear god tell me why I become this monster in my flesh When the sun descends and retires I become overwhelmed by death And give myself over to haunted desires I am asleep inside my own mind These acts are not my own I wake horrified to find That inside I'm not alone

The Sleeper
The light fades behind the moon My heart is once again tainted It is as if the darkness assumes My soul is to be repainted It's claws thick and stained by blood Like a werewolf it howls sadly at the sky I thought then it understood, but I plea, I beg, dear god tell me why I become this monster in my flesh When the sun descends and retires I become overwhelmed by death And give myself over to haunted desires I am asleep inside my own mind These acts are not my own I wake horrified to find That inside I'm not alone
