Banshee
She wails to your soul
The coming of pain
The black fairy appears
Voice of the undead
in the darkness
Waking through the mind
Piercing my inner most shell
Bringing the death of you
Pure heart turns black cold
I slowly open my eyes
The nightmare begins
To fade
Let me see the colour of light
My soul covers
the heart in white
To stop the rot of hell
Saving it in times
of darkness
The shield of protection
In black its bound
to roam this earth
Forever more
One soul passes
the graveyard of life
Passing through fairyland
Colours a blur
the heart begins to beat
searching with the eyes
in living dead
This body numb with pain
a dusting of light appears
angel rays
appear through the cracks
dark horse detects
the vampire's grave
Leaches sucking
what's left
crossing the undead hell
a zombie
I feel my pulse
there is always hope
Dark horse rears
on his front legs
slowly standing
on his feet
the mood changes
the banshee
heads straight to hell
With the coachman
of death on her tail
rattling passed
Two ivory coloured
headless horses
leading the carriage
straight to hell
Dumping the darkness
into a bottomless pit
locked away
in the dungeons
no more to see light
I found you love
dark becomes light
colours everywhere
my eyes wide open
my hands outstretched
Raising them high
to the heaven's
no more the fool
the banshee buried deep
in protection
of my heart
in the hope
she wails no more
Far away a distant thought
some say she lives in the pain
not heaven's light
barred to the darkness
where she never sleeps.
