They say I have no heart,
It's still there, just broken.
Nightmarish sleep, I tear myself apart,
I cannot rest my shattered soul.
In all my dreams and memories,
Appears the one I staked my hopes.

She comes to me, dressed all in white
Reminding me of what I sold.
An angel now, as she was in life,
A sleeping boy grasped in her arms.
Coming to torture me behind my eyes,
The pain she inflicts is internal.

Darkness was the path I chose,
It's reward, pain and power.
Black and menacing, I died and rose,
My sorrow feeding my strength.
Emotion and feeling I numbed with force,
And awoke, a servant of the night.
