The Sun Is My Destroyer - Exodus

Immortal subjugator, usurper, dominator

Blood ruler of the dark

Lord of the shadow world, flag of black unfurled

Foul, unholy patriarch

Enslaver of mankind, king of all unkind

Light ender in black domain

I fear only the dawn, at war with the rising sun

Eternal dusk ordained

I lurk beside you, never to abide you

I live inside you, always to divide you

I stand between you, certain to unclean you

The night is my savior

The sun is my destroyer

Despotic tyrants liar, judgement always dire

Unrepentant fear machine

Dream world paralyzer, re of man, none the wiser

Beneath the surface, site unseen

My only enemy, the day, behest color, shades of grey

Rejoice in the coming of the night

Nightmares come all too real, dest horror soon revealed

Rising with the dying of the light

I lurk beside you, never to abide you

I live inside you, always to divide you

I stand between you, certain to unclean you

The night is my savior

The sun is my destroyer

In my dominion, day meets its demise

Ultraviolet adversary, like an open wound to cauterize

The night’s assailant is the coming of the morning sun

Illuminescent antagonist, smashed to oblivion

I am god here, in the bowels of the human mind

Creature of imagination, born of the impure and unrefined

I prey on your fear, take all you hold dear and then I use it against you

So unwise for you to close your eyes

That’s when I come to dispense you

Malignant dream accuser

Pleasant thought reverser

Loathsome bringer of dread

Slumber now vitiated

Sweet dreams abominated

Terrors better left unsaid

Villainous machination

Sub conscious tribulation

Tremble at the coming of the twilight

Rising with the setting sun

Returning when the day’s undone

Ensuring an end to all goodnights

I lurk beside you, never to abide you

I live inside you, always to divide you

I stand between you, certain to unclean you

The night is my savior

The sun is my destroyer
