Analysis of Black Part 3: Feeding the Dark
Black Part 3: Feeding the Dark
Not on your life
This world we built I won't give up this fight
This is what I get for embracing the dark
There was magic in the air
I'm holding on so very tight
This forest whispered our names
It won't let us lose to this game.
Not on your life
I know what's deep in my heart
I won't let you surrender to the dark
Drowning in this binding light
Can you feel our bones collide
Close your eyes
Can you feel our flames dancing together
Like they did in those golden days?
Not on your life
This love we have I wont give up the fight
In these monuments of my failings
You are the one good thing
I ever did right
Hand on my heart
I know we will go farther
Than what we did before
You're a part of me.
