Artist/Band: Iced Earth
Lyrics for Song: Diary
Lyrics for Album: Dark Genesis [1996]



Mine is pure darkness

It is as blackness is

Damn the light which comes from

You as a moth to flame I burn



In the twilight of morning I rest my weary eyes

For the benefits of the nights bounty were many

My soul has been redeemed (with those of others)



I missed my love tonight

Hiding behind the figure I cannot bare to face

That of a dead profit

And his beast of burden

Thorns ripping through his brow



Skin soft and white, eyes fire and ice

Just as I recall

Not longer than nine score

Certainly food for the gods

And fit for a prince

Her throat I'll have it now



I will have her, she is mine

Rise of the sun, my test of time

And when shadows fall on unholy ground

It¹s time to sleep again



As consciousness slips into blackness

I rise to nights warm embrace

And though my blood runs cold

I know my love will be alone

And my mortal heart shall beat again

Like it did ten thousand years ago



Forbidden love can only taste this sweet

Not like the others so incomplete

The symbolic arrow that pierces my heart

Takes the shape of a wooden stare

Now I am the one crucified

For her immortal heart I'd give my own

And die for mankind's sins

But that is not the nature of this beast

I am denied



I will have her, she is mine

Rise of the sun, my test of time

When shadows fall on unholy ground

I will make her mine
