The sun that shines In the sky Brings the world its warmth And continues life It starts each day From deep in space Though in the end It will burn away
Pre-Chorus We hide from the light And embrace the night
Until we see that day We will live this way Dwell within the earth In these damp, darkened caves Never to escape Always on the run Finding ways to hide In the shadows of the sun We thrive
Chorus Extinction of our dying race Is at stake Though we grow stronger With every life we take
Lurking in the dark Feeding on the fears of man Draining their blood So we may live Living with the pain
And disgrace Of this sheltered life Killing what we need Consuming everything we see
We gain our strength With each death Giving us hope That we seek Still, we can’t succeed
And the torment This causes inside Brings visions
Of a world that we fear And its burning light Searing our flesh into dust Though we’ll die if we must To live again
We’ve survived For so many years Even with the progress of man The end is so near Darkness will cover the earth Giving way to birth For we shall rise
