Lyrics

Let us sing with somber tones, our voices climb in shadow's shroud Heavens draped in twilight's gown, where stars as mournful eyes are crowned Angels whisper, hush don't tell, the secrets of this celestial swell What is grace when night prevails? Please spirits, will you unveil? We've been adrift where halos dim, and seraphs sing their sorrowed hymns.. Now come the chimes from depth's abyss, the underworld screes, the serpent's hiss In Heaven's dark, no seraphim's cheer, just silent songs that mortals fear Voices merge in ghastly thread, sing tales of both the living and dead What is peace in this endless night? Oh souls departed, share your plight In shadows' fold, we grasp the void, where demons lurk, and hope's destroyed... Murmurs slip through rusted bins, tales of toil from whispered grins Lost in lines of refuse, tales, where quiet hope in work prevails Two thousand hands, hearts worn and brave, find worth in every trifle saved Hush now workers of the night, your whispers sow the dawning light
