[Verse 1:]
Bloodstained velvet, mercury traced
I saw the shadow of death on your face
Your gaze wandered off into the stars
I realized how fragile we are

There was a time when the world was ours
But when you're blessed, you're not counting the hours
I should've known that the end was near
But I was busy ignoring my fears

[Chorus:]
In search for
Something brighter than the sun
All the things I've earned will be no more
I'm passive aggressive, prepared to attack
I've seen the world but run a constant lack
These absent eyes will be disguised
As soon as we'll be strong enough to decide

Black like silver, baptized by rain
You were a stranger 'til I shared your pain
This love won't been touched by the light
Still it came alive when innocence died

You sensed my yearning, I felt your desire
You made me a saint and I made you a liar
I gave you my weakness
You gave me your strength
The guilt of my longing is all that remains
[Chorus]

Bloodstained velvet, mercury traced
Black like silver, baptized by rain

[Chorus]
