All, that she left behind
Light is still shining through
Only leaving me blind
My moment is gone
Lines I should bravely have crossed
So over my head tonight
All of the power is lost
I, never held you for all of this time
And I only wanted the look in your eyes, to last forever
And somehow I know
Escape to your distant repose
If only I could touch
The mistress of the dark
She's the mistress of the dark
Memories, of the things we could have been
An axis it turns
Reality burns, life's so paper thin
The dungeons of the heart
You move when the lights go out, yeh
Your eyes mesmerize, and dark sacrifice
Silhouettes of temptation
I follow you down
I never held you for all of this time
And I only wanted the look in your eyes to last forever
And somehow, I know
Escape to your distant repose
If only I could touch
The mistress of the dark
She's the mistress of the dark
If only I could touch
The mistress of the dark
Dark incantations, I'm under your spells
Life at the alter, I remember it well
The dungeons of the heart
You move as the lights go out, yeh
Your eyes mesmerize, and dark sacrifice
Silhouettes of temptation
I follow you down
Follow you down
The mistress of the dark, yeh
The mistress of the dark
Mistress of the dark
I never held you for all of this time
(The mistress of the dark)
And I only wanted the look in your eyes
To last forever
(The mistress of the dark)
Yeh
To last forever
Yeh
The mistress of the dark
(Ah)
Yeh
The mistress of the dark
