Descend the Shades of Night

Sitting in the empty black The last slivers of dusk have passed Accept the dawn to ease the fear One day I will not be here Death she comes and with her thread Upon me ties a mask for dead Its tears of blood begin to seep And bleed the sky Descend the shades of night Death shines her golden light Across a blackened sky All our hate is a product of a world We created Ashen clouds obscure my brain Doubts begin to turn to shame Insecureness tears at bliss I hate me for this weakness Faith drives me to carry on And take the road less traveled on Resentment swallowed means to drown The poison down The shades of night descend Descend the shades of night Death shines her golden light Across a blackened sky All our hate is a product of a world We created Scream with me Bleed with me Seethe with me Sing with me Free me Free me Free me Descend the shades of night Death shines her golden light Across a blackened sky The shades of night descend --- Descend the Shades of Night - Machine Head
