A Lifetime in the Service of Darkness

Текст песни Ashbury Heights - A Lifetime in the Service of Darkness

When the moonrise shines on the steps of paradise
I can see the walls that they built for me
When the night calls out for the darkest of the bright
I can almost see who I'm meant to be

The hollow lights, the hollow lights
So cold and bright
Blinded by the polarity
The hollow lights, the hollow lights
So dead and white
I'm not just what you make of me

One lifetime in the service of the darkness
I was high on the shadow I've been riding
All my life in the service of the darkness
You and I like a blacklight
'Cause I'm bleeding while you're sleeping
That's our right in the service of the darkness
That we always try to hide
And you can believe me when I say
I'm on the outside looking in
And if I'm ever breaking through
You'll know that every word's a sin

In the service of the darkness, you and I
In the service of the darkness, darkness
In the service of the darkness, you and I

When the fear is high like an unrelenting tide
You can sink or swim but it's all the same
When you wake up wet and the sun's already set
You can paint the night in a broken way

The hollow lights, the hollow lights
So cold and bright
Blinded by the polarity
The hollow lights, the hollow lights
So dead and white
I'm not just what you make of me

One lifetime in the service of the darkness
I was high on the shadow I've been riding
All my life in the service of the darkness
You and I like a blacklight
'Cause I'm bleeding while you're sleeping
That's our right in the service of the darkness
That we always try to hide
And you can believe me when I say
I'm on the outside looking in
And if I'm ever breaking through
You'll know that every word's a sin

In the service of the darkness, you and I
In the service of the darkness, darkness
In the service of the darkness, you and I

(One lifetime in the service of the darkness, the darkness)

(One lifetime in the service of the darkness, the darkness)

One lifetime in the service of the darkness
I was high on the shadow I've been riding
All my life in the service of the darkness
You and I like a blacklight
'Cause I'm bleeding while you're sleeping
That's our right in the service of the darkness
That we always try to hide

In the service of the darkness, you and I
In the service of the darkness, darkness
In the service of the darkness, you and I
