Prologue
Twinkle, twinkle, little star
Show me just how bright you are
Shine your light, you little star
Ban the darkness from afar


1st Verse
Alone tonight
In this attic room
Lit by candle light
Your breath is cold
Your face a mask
But soon the time is right


1st Bridge
Your eyes are open
You’re welcoming the night
Seals are broken no words are spoken

1st Chorus
Dark
So Dark
When The Book of Shadows breaks apart
And opens up the gateway to your heart
Slow
So slow
The time will pass
But rest assured
You’re here at last
But where you’ll go
No one will ever know
No one can know


2nd Verse
Steady hands
Don’t hesitate
Paint the mirrors black
Burn the candles one by one
There’s no turning back

2nd Bridge
With eyes wide open
You stare into the night
Seals now broken the words were spoken


2nd Chorus
Dark
So Dark
When a thousand spells attack your heart
They’ve come unleashed unsettled from the past
Slow
So slow
The time will pass
But rest assured
You’re here at last
But where you’ll go
No-one will ever know
No-one can know

C-Part
It’s all here…
(In the Book of Shadows)
It’s so clear….
(In the Book of Shadows)

Last Choruses
Dark
So Dark
When The Book of Shadows breaks apart
And opens up the gateway to your heart
Slow
So slow
The time will pass
But rest assured

You’re here at last
But where you’ll go
No-one will ever know
No-one can know

Dark
So Dark
When The Book of Shadows breaks apart
And opens up the gateway to your heart
Slow
So slow
The time will pass
But rest assured
You’re here at last
But where you’ll go
No-one will ever know
No-one can know

Outro
Twinkle, twinkle, little star
Show me just how bright you are
Shine your light, you little star
Ban the darkness from afar
