Lyrics

[Spoken Intro] "Mine is pure darkness It is as blackness is Damn the light which comes from You as a moth to flame I burn" [Verse 1] In the twilight of morning I rest my weary eyes For the benefits of the nights bounty were many My soul has been redeemed Yeah! [Verse 2] I missed my love tonight Hiding behind the figure I cannot bare to face That of a dead prophet And his beast of burden (Thorns ripping through his brow!) [Verse 3] Skin soft and white, eyes fire and ice Just as I recall Not longer than nine score Certainly food for the gods And fit for a prince (Her throat I'll have it now!) [Chorus] I will have her, she is mine Rise of the sun, my test of time And when shadows fall on unholy ground It's time to sleep [Spoken] "As consciousness slips into blackness I rise to nights warm embrace And though my blood runs cold I know my love will be alone And my mortal heart shall beat again Like it did ten thousand years ago" [Guitar Solo] [Bridge] Forbidden love can only taste this sweet Not like the others so incomplete The symbolic arrow that pierces my heart Takes the shape of a wooden stare [Spoken] "Now I am the one crucified" Yeah! [Verse 4] For her immortal heart I'd give my own And die for mankind's sins But that is not the nature of this beast I am denied [Chorus] I will have her, she is mine Rise of the sun, my test of time When shadows fall on unholy ground I will make her mine
