When the Empire Falls - Child Of The Dark

Pull the sheets, over your head at night
In candlelight, shadows keep growing
Hear the steps, you close your eyes and pray
Your heart beats, they hear your heavy breathing

Never let them see you cry
'Cause then you're gone
Keep your secret to yourself
Or else they'll take your life

You're waiting for something to arrive
(you're the child of the dark, keep the secret or you're gone)
you follow the path they put you on
(you're the child of the dark, last chance, come with us)
when you reach the point of no return
(never turn your back to us, you're the dark, you're with us)
never look back

in your dream, you're standing in heavy rain
close to you, you hear them laughing
you run away, still you find them in front of you
they disappear, to the darkness

close your eyes and you will see
the real truth
will your demons set you free
or will they take your soul

You're waiting for something to arrive
(you're the child of the dark, keep the secret or you're gone)
you follow the path they put you on
(you're the child of the dark, last chance, come with us)
when you reach the point of no return
(never turn your back to us, you're the dark, you're with us)
never look back just follow through

monsters rising, breathing fire
child of darkness could be a liar
never stop, just keep on running
don't slow down they're always coming...
For you
