King Of The Night

from Penumbra (digital version) by Call It Tragedy

/

about

"King Of The Night may be the most technical and melodic song, along with Second Of Silence. It's also the first song in which we included a clean guitar, as well as a Solo. I like to think of it as a successful experiment testing our composing abilities.

Lyrical Meaning:
The "King Of The Night" was intended to be a person who let's his inner monster erupt. It's pretty close to the werewolf idea. Obviously the lyrics are completely fictional and actually heavily inspired by "Avenged Sevenfold"'s "Almost Easy"'s "I'm not insane" part."

lyrics

Lyrics:

The path i follow is paved in cobblestone,
My feet are bare and covered in blood.
The woods around me are as dark as my vision.
I hope i’m dreaming, but it feels so real.

Stop showing me the number,
I don’t care how others feel when i’m miserable.
Stop trying to give me satisfaction,
My consciousness equals zero.

As bright as the sun may shine
I will never see the world the same way again.
As long as i hear my heart beat
I will not break down, i will not break down

Look at my face, don’t you see i’m insane?
Listen to my voice, don’t you hear my confusion?

I am insane and i will never stop to be,
I feel my mind as it weighs against me.
Sell my life and buy me happiness
Or give me light to lead me out of the abyss.

This is my story, this is my tragedy.
Warm as a fire but still cold as ice.

I feel something crawling inside me.

I start to stumble, i start to fall,
I feel my fingernails growing to claws.
The moon is shining upon me,
My senses evolve, i am starting to get hungry.

I am insane and i will never stop to be,
I feel my mind as it weighs against me.
Sell my life and buy me happiness
Or give me light to lead me out of the abyss.

I feel my rage crawling out to the surface
My path of cobblestone is now debris.
