Constellations Demise - Under Cover of Night Lyrics

Along the highway there's a monument erect
Leaves the heart amiss and the psyche kept in check
Engraved upon it these words echoed numb and eerie
Do not unto others lest be done unto thee
Does ride the darkness an angel of the night
Upon his mount and steed a vengeance does alight
Inscribed on his frame for thy hunger I crave
I am bringer of vengeance whence thy heart off does stray
Under cover of night when the world does sleep
Does the ferry man come to protect his sheep
Upon those who will prey on the souls of the weak
And the ones who are afraid of the children who cant sleep
One day will be the last that your heart shys away
You You're mortal souls bound to betray
To those who prey upon those who can't fight
For the ones who bring sorrow with coming of night
To the ones who have hurt have begot and betrayed
Know too soon comes my wrath and my hand not be stayed
And if quiet and older your sins out of date
I've a lifetime coming I've forever to wait
And to where there is time of forever shall burn
In my home deep below shall thee not to return
Under cover of night when the world does sleep
Does the ferry man come to protect his sheep
Upon those who will prey on the souls of the weak
And the ones who are afraid and in night cannot sleep
One day will be the last that your heart shys away
You You're mortal souls bound to betray
So as the daybreak hides
And the monsters fade away
Theres a reckoning coming
Of this you all can pray
You may run you may hide
For one day ill arrive and the fires i will bring are the flames that derive
There will be no way out there will come no more peace to the souls of the many who have stolen the peace
And those words are no might
And the actions are slow
Mark my lips there's a one
That forever will know
And as dragged far away
And your cries echo black
I have saved you a place
From where youre not coming back
Under cover of night when the world does sleep
Does the ferry man come to protect his sheep
Upon those who will prey on the souls of the weak
And the ones who are afraid who will soon they sleep
One day will be the last that your heart shys away
You You're mortal souls bound to betray
