Endless Black

In the dead of night, I hear her voice fade away
Lost in shadows, where the light won't stay
Her beauty burned too bright, now it's gone from my sight
Empty rooms echo with the weight of endless night

I chase the ghosts in every darkened hall
Whispers calling, but they never answer at all
Grief wraps around me like a funeral veil
Love turned to sorrow, and I'm trapped in this hell

Oh, she's gone, taken far too soon
My heart's a tomb under a blood-red moon
No more laughter, just the silence screaming loud
Her memory cuts through me like a shroud

Friends gather close with their hollow words of peace
But they don't feel the storm that won't cease
I wander the streets where her footsteps used to fall
Now every corner screams she's never coming back at all

Oh, she's gone, ripped from my trembling hands
My soul's in pieces across these forsaken lands
No more dawn, just the darkness closing in
Her name echoes where the living end

Angels envy what we held in our fragile days
Now I'm left with ruins in a perpetual haze
Prayers fall silent on these cold, marble floors
Forever haunted by the one I'll love no more

Oh, she's gone, vanished into the endless black
My world's a void I can't ever take back
No more light, only the pain that remains
Her spirit lingers in the pouring rain

She's never coming back at all.
Oh, no, she's never coming back at all.
Oh, no, no, she's never coming back at all.
She's never coming back at all.
