In the depths of night, where the shadows dwell,  
Entities of Reality stalk, whispering hell,  
Haunting humankind’s fragile, fleeting breath,  
Love entwined with Death, a dance upon the precipice.  
  
Teasing unmercifully, destiny takes a bow,  
Promising in person, yet we’re lost in the now,  
A plain brown package lies upon the floor,  
What’s inside Pandora’s box? Could it be more?  
  
Desire disguised as a need, a trophy to possess,  
Consciousness trying to escape this emptiness,  
The Mind’s Eye bleeds with visions of the past,  
Every tear a testament, am I free at last?  
  
Visceral screams echo in the chambers of my soul,  
Fate's cruel fingertips pulling at the controls,  
Graveyard thoughts linger, in the silence I reside,  
Yet the promise of tomorrow, keeps the darkness inside.  
  
The tears won’t stop, but call them Tears of Joy,  
Gratitude surfaces, in this life, I'm just a toy,  
Make promises to get what you want, a hollow vow,  
In this grand illusion, where are we now?  
  
It doesn’t matter, how can we rise above,  
Transcend the Chains of Fate, when all we crave is Love?  
It doesn’t matter, we’re all going to the same place someday,  
It doesn’t matter, we’re all going to heaven anyway.  
  
So raise your voice to the echoes of despair,  
Embrace the shadows, breathe the midnight air,  
In the arms of death, love’s eternal flame resides,  
Together we’ll awaken, as destiny collides.
