Thousand faces on my way Each gaze a mirror of decay Years carved into the marrow Ashen steps through sorrow’s path Serpents whisper, sweet deceit Hollow hunger, I concede Sacred flame I could not hold Now my eyes are burnt and cold Sacre Cœur, I dream your light But my soul is stained with rust Sacre Cœur, too far, too late I still crawl to your name Fate collapsed, the stars grew blind I lost the thread I could not find The choir drowned in empty glass And every thought turned to the past Too late, I saw the light withdrawn The sacred flame forever gone The gates of gold have turned to stone I face the end, I face the void I've seen the deepest darkness and wrestled with gods Ride the noble harness, raining cats and dogs I stand before my nightmares, like Belial in the abyss My fate consume me, I abide your will Sacre Cœur, I bleed, I fade A shadow carved by what I prayed Sacre Cœur, too late to turn I watch the heavens as they burn
