Say My Name in No Light

When we first came here,

We were cold and we were clear.

A falling star fell from your heart and landed in my eyes,

And every color illuminates.

We are shining!

But then it stopped,

and I was in the darkness,

In the shadow of your heart;

No light, no light,

In your bright blue eyes.

You left me in the dark,

In the shadow of your heart;

You inspired a fire of devotion that lasts for twenty years-

You can't choose what stays and what fades away

I took the stars from our eyes,

and then I made a map,

And knew that somehow I could find my way back.

And I'd do anything to make you stay.

Then I heard your heart beating,

you were in the darkness too;

Sometimes you're half in and then you're half out,

But you never close the door.

No light, no light

In the shadow of your heart,

In your bright blue eyes-

So I stayed in the darkness with you,

No dawn, no day, I'm always in this twilight,

Screaming in the dark, I howl when we're apart.

I tried to find the sound,

I can see no way, I can see no way,

And all of the ghouls come out to play.

I want to find you-

Say my name!

With metal on our tongues,

And silver in our lungs.

I tried to find the sound,

But then it stopped,

and I was in the darkness,

So darkness I became.
