Darkness Falling

Lyrics

[Intro] Bloodstains of the fallen Plague this trail you're walkin' A warning to be harkened The eyes of fate are always watchin' A desecrated grave forgotten A seed of evil in the garden Now rise up from your coffin Submit yourself unto the darkness [Verse 1] If death is a drug, it's a fact, I'm an addict Like a virus and I happened to catch it Getting killed isn't such a practical habit (Nope) You could say that I'm a master at it (Yep) Call me hollow, on a path to madness Like a phoenix, I came back from ashes I'm bad with fashion, all clad in black But I'm the ashen one, so I'm glad with that (Swag) Take a step back, my weapons are massive I massacre masses, attack like a savage I'm hackin' and slashin' ravenous dragons Isn't that Dracula's castle I'm passin'? (Woah) The lords of cinder are back from nappin' They've all gone mad, now they're acting rabid I'll have to send 'em all back to ashes If you see an estus flask, better grab it [Verse 2] As I walk into Lothric, I can see the fires swallowed by the darkness Push through the fog, I will only find solace When I'm slaughtering every hollow carcass I'm not a novice, fuck being modest All of my blocks and dodges are flawless I devour gods, but don't call me Aldrich Praise the sun! Here comes the dawn, bitch I've crossed swords with a lot of bosses They get pissed off because mine's the longest Knock 'em dead and fill up my pockets If you're not my friend, you're nothing but a conquest (Uh) Light a bonfire, catch your breath And get your rest, 'cause who knows what the heck is next? Someone left a message and I better check it: "If you're on this path, get prepped for death!" [Chorus] The darkness is falling The grim reaper's calling The shadows are coming to life And I must rekindle The embers that dwindle From ashes and cinder will I rise [Verse 3] From the deepest pits of the abysses Comes a sickness with which I'm afflicted Even though my destiny might be scripted Can you tell me one thing that isn't cryptic? (Please) Because my grip is slipping on my sanity I'm barely hanging onto my humanity Every encounter ends in a calamity Why do I do this to myself? Answer me Now I'm as hollow as I'll ever be Because the dark sigil has already branded me A curse hanging over me like a canopy But I will use the darkness that was sent to me To keep the first flame burning for centuries Light and dark are not complimentary My enemies will never see the end of me Because I just cannot seem to rest in peace [Verse 4] Uh, uh, uh, on the grind like a nine to five Scraping by like I'm deprived Trying not to let the fire die If you need a light, then I'm your guy I'm a lord of cinder, adorned with embers My flame will burn even through storms of winter Because I will emerge as an immortal victor Every foe I face is getting more familiar [Pre-Chorus] I seek the chosen one To have my curse undone Embrace the dark Or praise the sun [Chorus] The darkness is falling The grim reaper's calling The shadows are coming to life And I must rekindle The embers that dwindle From ashes and cinder will I rise [Bridge] Hollowed, empty, stoke these embers Lost my memories, won't remember The flame is fading, I'm the lone defender I know I'll have a dark soul forever Life and death, dark and light Warmth and cold, wrong and right Your nightmares take control Nothing can make you whole They'll break your soul [Chorus] The darkness is falling The grim reaper's calling The shadows are coming to life And I must rekindle The embers that dwindle From ashes and cinder will I rise (Will I rise, will I rise, will I rise) [Outro] The darkness is falling (I feel the darkness fallin') The grim reaper's calling (I hear the reaper callin') The shadows are coming to life (I feel 'em coming to life) And I must rekindle (I know I must rekindle) The embers that dwindle (Won't let those embers dwindle) From ashes and cinder will I rise
