[Cass] As the sun Descended on our crime In blasphemy you lied to me And told me you were mine I set the world ablaze to burn your every sorrow Oh, but pure intentions led your heart astray I've only done what must be done I chased the moon you chased the sun And in its light you found your truth apart from me Enticing words that spoke of trust Have fallen quiet with our lust And in betrayal left me mute Countless years Wasted on a dream Cut to shreds by the one That meant the most to me All I ever wanted was To carve a world for both of us To drink our fill and spend our nights Entwined beneath the moon But my affections can't outshine the sun [Solo: Ahmed] I've grown addicted to the noise My creaking bones have been destroyed Since that sadistic day you stole my voice Cold hands cemented to the floor In death becoming something more In playing god, you had your fun But there'll be no chasing of the sun Did you expect that I'd allow you to go free? There yet lives love amidst my hate I found my plot, accepted fate But don't forget that you belong to me To give to you the moon I came undone But my fall from grace was for nothing My love chose the sun
