[00:16.40] And there was light
[00:21.08] and the darkness that followed blinded my eyes
[00:25.11] The night
[00:29.54] made me trustworthy and hid all my lies
[00:33.67] I called
[00:37.65] the seventh of the eight and gave him my offer
[00:41.93] So cold
[00:45.71] were the feelings I bore inside after I'd lost her
[00:51.53] Sometimes
[00:53.23] I still can hear
[00:55.22] his voices calling, calling me from everywhere
[00:59.60] And now and then
[01:01.49] I feel my soul
[01:03.88] slowly slipping out of myself into his...
[01:07.16] Hell
[01:11.09] close my eyes and makes me forget
[01:15.17] To tell
[01:19.50] her of the deal and the conditions I met
[01:23.48] And now
[01:27.71] it's far too late to tell her what's going on here
[01:31.84] Somehow
[01:36.12] I'm almost looking forward to when this is over
[01:41.70] "I felt my ghost cross over, and knew he was near,
[01:49.66] and across the river I could see him standing there."
[01:56.48] (solo)
[03:14.19] And there was light
[03:18.57] and the blackness that followed blinded her eyes
[03:23.09] The night
[03:27.52] drew her to me and we met in the dark
[03:31.26] And this
[03:35.79] why am I here? were the words that she said
[03:39.82] A kiss
[03:43.61] told her I was responsible for her being dead
[03:52.52] She cried in silence and I wiped away her tears
[04:00.58] She felt my cold hand amplifying her fears
[04:09.04] She knew where she was and she cursed her beloved
[04:19.54] And all of a sudden it all was over
[04:25.07] Sometimes
[04:26.56] I still can hear
[04:28.70] his voices calling, calling me from everywhere
[04:32.74] And now and then
[04:34.83] I feel my soul
[04:37.27] slowly slipping out of myself into his Hell
[04:44.88] I know he's waiting there for me
[04:51.70] in his limbo between destination and reality."
