Beware of me, for I learn from the Night
His students adopt a different wrong and right
His virtues are rage, paranoia and violence
And here in the dark, they make perfect sense.
Can you see darkness falling my friend?
The shadows dance in my mind again
You know the darkness but have much to learn
you still don't know how stop its return
This line and verse is a dangerous song
All the rules change when the fading light’s gone
Our pride and our strength we think will forestall
The raging madness that summons the Fall.
There are efforts and promises all in abundance
As you still pretend I’m still who you saw
That person now lives only in dreams
And I am no longer what I may seem
Because some have learned the strength of the Night
And whether it’s wrong or whether it’s right
They will return to the light’s domain
But in the end, some shall remain.
I want nothing more than to save you from danger
Even though we are now nothing but strangers
Do you not see the darkness could claim you?
Can you not imagine who you might change to?
For if the Night claims you, your dreams will end
The people who loved you will run now and then
And though they might hear you when you should call
You too shall learn… you can’t stop the Fall.
They’ll trust you completely until they do not.
As little by little the Night twists your thoughts
The Night will consume us, in that we can trust
Long after both you and our friendship is dust.
There’s no one to help and no one to blame
No hero nor tonic to make us more sane
No matter your strength you cannot forestall
All on your own? You can't stop the Fall.
