LYRICS Three nights I begged beside the altar Three nights heaven gave me none Another child stopped breathing Before the morning sun I knew one name we never spoke One prayer beneath the rest I called into the silence And the dark said yes “Name the price You’re willing to pay” I looked at them And said, “Take me” Heaven stayed silent The dark said yes I gave it my soul It gave back their breath I asked for mercy It asked for me Heaven stayed silent The dark heard me By dawn the fever had vanished Every child opened their eyes They called it heaven’s mercy I let them believe the lie But now when I kneel at the altar Another voice begins It doesn’t ask permission It knows I belong to it Heaven stayed silent The dark said yes It gave them tomorrow And took what was left I asked for mercy It answered my plea Now every prayer Brings it closer to me It never said That it was God It never lied To me I knew the price I saw them dying And paid it Willingly Heaven stayed silent The dark said yes They kept their lives It kept the rest I saved them all But lost myself And every prayer I whisper now Belongs To something else Heaven stayed silent The dark Found me #DarkFantasyMusic #GothicFantasy #FantasySong
