Heart of the Dead

I have waited with patience for this moment to come
 A promise, I expected not to be alone
 When the wind of the dark comes enclosing us in
 The whisper gets closer and I fake this grin
 A stranger in town with a bloodshot eye
 Sucked out my disease when I was said to die
 I won't spend t he rest of my death underground
 He laughed as I died, I am no longer bound

 My heart is not red
 This sea I've bled
 I have sold my fucking soul to the dead
 Their hunger is fed
 The beast in my head
 Heart of the dead
 Heart of the dead

 I left in the darkest hour
 I'm tired of breathing rain
 Still the night devours
 Each and every inch of pain

 No longer dressed in soil
 A guardian of the black and the cold
 Spirits of liars leading my way
 No longer inferno
 On earth I will stay
