Beautiful Darkness (My Secret Sin)
O beautiful darkness
How lovely is thee
O beautiful darkness
You can only be as lovely as me
O beautiful darkness
Even in a court of nobles
No man among you could match me
Light could only scratch
As I sit and await darkness to snatch me
Look for death and find it you shall
No man is your pal
For you can feel the jealousy as their spirits howl
So madly rash
Remain so sadly at the hash
Because you were so easily solicit
I had to become so much more explicit
Lord of paradise
A threat to all those whom care about life
For every man I rest and no man spareth
Suffer from an unforgiving wrath
Into thy hands this is what I demand
My soul, I commend, take it lord!
Let it not be lost
If it’s greed, I only ask
That these sins be faded with the frost
As this beautiful darkness is my eternal cost
