Ever since my descent into the darkness
She's been there
Burning
Lighting my path
Helping me remember who I am
All that is dear to me…
And why I am doing this.
Love
Is why I'm here
But having her lightens the burden some
If it were completely dark
If I was left all alone in this emptiness
I doubt I'd still be sane
I don't remember when the light faded from the world
Maybe when I extinguished all that was dear to me
Or was it before
When I gained these damned eyes
But I don't regret it
These eyes
They do have a purpose
The ones I couldn't kill
The one who couldn't defend himself from me
And the one who wouldn't
These eyes will help them
As dark as they make my path
But I don't care
As long as she's with me
She's a light
A bright light
A light to lift me up and help me along
It never burns out
I wonder
If her light will ever go out
No
I can't let that happen
If her light were to go out
Her presence gone
What else would there be
Her light will burn
I'll make sure of that
I promise
To protect you
Please
Just keep lighting the way
And I'll always keep you safe
