Not once, but twice Have I outrun this darkness Yet behind me, it looms closer than ever Its unrelenting pursuit halted, when we're together Not once, but twice Have I slain these demons Fought with all of me, left battered and broken Those battle scars are but my only token Not once, but twice Was my back against the wall Forced unto it and pinned against my will Fate had stricken me with the intent to **** Not once, but twice Have I outrun this darkness I wouldnt keep going if it wasnt for you Nothing can stop me, this is what I do For you

Not Once, But Twice
Who is she but blood of that demise In fiery passion her own blood consumes? Like powder waiting for the heat of flame Whose heat in lonely agony she bathes? What is it but fire of that demise Whose sacrificial prodigies be made To keep him superstitious of the flame? And in triumph, like fire, they consume.
