Tears Softer Than Shadows

I stood there in the black of night My gaze cast towards the sky; O'glorious luna, so beautiful you were this Halloween I stood there paralyzed, enchanted My memories paint a cautionary tale; one forever stained in blood Beneath luna's pale glow, we met as vampires do Both alive in our coffins Feasting in the dead of night, your eyes gleaming with trickery I'd begun to experience the depths of your cruelty, and I saw it so vividly; flashing before me all at once. I'd finally snapped; my sanity was under abduction After everything we'd been through, the person I saw before me was so foreign to me, so alien.. I swore that you would change again All I wanted from you was a friend but you just watched me diabolical voices echo in my ears whispering sweet nothings stings upon my heart
