Rising

I'm struck by lightning
Frozen in place
I shivered like a leaf
The day I saw his face

With eyes of fire, a living dead
Opened his burning eyes
Looked at me and said

The time is running low
The night is almost gone
Soon I will have to go
The sun is rising
Live your life in sin
You don't want to come back
I must return again
The sun is rising again

By night I'm master
By day I'm slave
I sold my soul to him
To escape my lonely grave

I must return now
He said and frowned
And as he crept back down
He whispered from the ground:

The time is running low
The night is almost gone
Soon I will have to go
The sun is rising
Live your life in sin
You don't want to come back
I must return again
The sun is rising again
