	In our opinion, overall the most successful song from the demotape. The song constructs a furious yet sublime extravaganza of metal vs. classical music.

	Lyrics Oh, how my heart bleeds for you My angel with wings burnt away by hate My angel with innocence torn away by love A work of divine art, now nothing but a shadow A drained, tired shell of what once was In a time before the eclipse Of your sun, now faded into the horizon You are lost, my dear In the whirlwind in my heart With only your echoing screams to keep you company In this neverending labyrinth of tricks and malice You gave up hope so long ago And swept the tears away How I ache to see your shine dim And to stare back into your eyes, so black and endless Reflecting a soul cried dry Standing as pillars holding your defeat up high Reflecting a soul cried dry Standing as pillars holding your defeat up high You gave up hope so long ago And swept the tears away
