Robber of Every Soul

Oh, black man of the night Robber of every soul destroyer of the strongest heart Melter of the most beautiful eyes Why do you make us wail in hate? Why become our unpredictable fate Why take away our voice Why make us feel like we don’t have a choice Without you, we all have hope but with you our world is undefined Mighty men born with a task, when you meet them, they leave their task behind Sometimes they wish you never existed Yet with nature by your side, you can’t be resisted Sorrow roams each time you visit Hearts plead for you to listen But You love the arson Now Snatching is your credit Oh, can you listen when we cry Can you let go of your mission when we ask? Can you bring back our loved ones and not deny? Or will you continue to bask in this vastness of hatred wearing a mask?
