Ariel:
Rules without exceptions
last eternally.
Every move you make
creates your destiny.

I've come to soak
my sorrow in halo black,
as black as the seal on my soul!

Because when the lights are down
there's no more to say.
Love is the real pain,
an internal revolution in our minds.

And when the lights are down
you're so far away.
Tell me your real name,
in the silence of the
darkness we unite.

Rules without exceptions
last eternally.
Every move you make
creates your destiny.

What can protect me from the past
and all the things that I have done?
She told me and then she was gone!

But when the lights are down
there's no more to say.
Deep in the shadows
where the last of my
delusions made a stand.

Because when the lights are down
she'll take me away.
Tell me her real name
and in Death we'll live the
Love we never had.

Come all ye faithful
beneath the moon.
Into the void as one
marching on.

Because when the lights are down
there's no more to say.
Love is the real pain,
an internal revolution in our minds.

Because when the lights are down
she'll take me away.
Tell me her real name
and in Death we'll live the
Love we never had.
