Eye For An Eye Lyrics - Night In Gales

[ Swano ] 

I have no control, he's making my moves 

I am like a puppet on a string 

To get a hold of my body he must empty my soul 

But right now I wonder what the end will bring 

I wonder if I am dreaming, if I do will I wake up 

Before we reach the forest 

Where my dreams will stop 

Thinking about the woman 

That has saved me from the cold 

I really need her here now, I need a hand to hold 

And the more that I think of you 

The more you fade away 

And here in this hell that I am going through 

I can't even close my eyes and pray 

The noise drives me crazy 

But I remain calm 

In this blur I hear a melody 

It might be the final psalm 

It's time for a change 

An eye for an eye 

Admitting it's strange 

He'll live and I'll die 

He's out for revenge 

An eye for an eye 

It's my turn to suffer now 

The final goodbye 

An eye for an eye 

An I for an I 

Desperation takes control 

My life is slipping away 

We're coming closer to the end 

And there is nothing that I can do 

I see thru these eyes, I am blind! 

I am thinking about my life the way it used to be 

Thru the good times and the bad 

And all the moments that I've had 

It's not a way to end a life 

But I guess it was just pretend 

I am out walking this winter night 

And everything is like before 

We enter the forest now and I can see the tree 

The rope is still hanging there 

Like a monument to forever be 

In the noise I hear laughters but I also hear cries 

I guess it is my soul I hear 

Knowing of his sacrifice? 

Please someone release me father 

Let this torture stop 

I feel a tear is coming as I am climbing higher up 

Please my friend forgive me 

I wasn't meant to end this way 

Trying to control myself, but I am the game you play 

And the noose is around my neck 

And now my time is here 

I wish I could show my regrets and express my fear 

Where am I going to can you tell me what we'll be 

Will I come to where you are? 

I guess I'll just die and see! 

The gallow is ready now, an eye for an eye 

I wish I could live somehow, but lifeless I'll lie 

And he will be born again, I die oh I die 

I am jumping now I am losing life an eye for an eye 

It's only black and no signs of light 

And the shadow has entered my body 

And I can hear him say farewell with my voice 

"Oh, when the night comes down 

And the dark is conducting the nightfall overture"
