Lyrics to Abandoned By The Light
I anchored my heart
into the depths of this sea,
with this ship made out of fears.

Its crew plagued with the curse
that comes with the daylight,
and pours its black flood on me
when the night arrives.

On this sinking hearse I stand
made of bones, blood and horns.
Sails of this ghost ship left
at the mercy of these storms.

I tore the demons out of me but
the night always brought them back.
They painted my skin with their shadows,
and cut me with their blades.

I was drowned under their will until
I knelt like a sheep under wolves' eyes.
They made me stare straight into the fire
until I heard all the cries of pain in the aether.

But in the flame I
saw myself burned alive,
burned alive with her.
Please save me, Saint Peter!

On this sinking hearse I stand
made of bones, blood and horns.
Sails of this ghost ship left
at the mercy of these storms.

Flags ripped apart by the
winds that felt like thorns.
No land and no home in sight,
I am abandoned by the light.

The purest form of pain,
my heart pulled apart by ebony horses
unaware of their powers.

Gentle in their calmness until their
eyes lit up like the fires of Hell,
or was it just a reflection of mine?

On this sinking hearse I stand
made of bones, blood and horns.
Sails of this ghost ship left
at the mercy of these storms.

Flags ripped apart by the
winds that felt like thorns.
No land and no home in sight,
I am abandoned by the light.
