Did you ever think you would get away?
Even when the sun swallowed up?
It won't ever be day again
And under the cover of night you could never hide, never
Cause you're still in my sight shining just as bright as ever
From this sparkling black shroud
While I trace your tracks in the clouds
Never once and for all I could only stall, for how long?
Waiting impatiently to feel my spine buried in its jaw
I know you're gone by now, I can hear them howl and it hurts
Galloping in vain, my bleeding hooves will stain the dirt
From this sparkling black shroud
While you trace my tracks in the clouds
Just get this over with
My legs can't keep doing this
