HIM - Love's Requiem

Confusion writhes around our hearts
Impatiently
It drains the faith that lights the dark
And sets us free
From the chains of our war and
the pain we once called
Love

The poison of doubt enslaves our minds
And we bleed
We abandon the trust that kept us blind
And disappear
Under the crimson wings of hate
Where the lost are safe until they love
Again

The heart of darkness is hope
Of finding you there
And that hope will be our
Love’s requiem

We pray to the serpent of delight
Desperately
The questions are answered and we try
Not to weep
Until we are sure we’re suffering for
Love

In the dungeon of our dreams we’re so weak
The promise made to be broken still
Haunts our sleep
We won’t open our eyes
Afraid we would die for love
Again

The heart of darkness is hope
Of finding you there
And that hope will be our
Love’s requiem

This salvation we seek will be
waiting us there
In the heart of darkness lonely and scared
With a promise of death for our love
For our love

And now that we’re free
From the chains of our dear love
I’m lost - so lost

The heart of darkness is hope
Of finding you there
And that hope will be our
Love’s requiem

Take me into your arms
And sing me your beautiful song

Hold me until we’re one
And sing me your beautiful song
