The Chronicles Project - The Last Embrace

[Introduction]
[Nightfall:]
Well, here you are, hiding her, in a church? Really? It won't help though, now that the hunt is on, she's mine.

[Verse 1]
The hunt is on, once again I'm assigned
I still hear the calling echoes in my mind
Like a prelude to a tragedy
Days of sorrow lie ahead
There's no tomorrow, for the life we once had
Murderers we are and there's no one you can trust
There's a demon inside all of us!

I have lived my life in vain
Oh god, if you're with me, please release me from this pain!

[Chorus:]
I need hope
I need strength to carry onTo forget the things I've done
Please forgive me, 'cause I live this lie
God above
What's the reason of it all?
Tell me why we had to fall into disgrace?
Could this be your last embrace?

[Verse 2]
Senses darkened by the light of the day
Night will come and doubts fade away
I found your trace, now it's me you'll have to face
We protect what lies beyond the rivers of oblivion Can you hear me? Can you tell me?
Can I still believe you set me free?

I have lived a life in agony
Oh god, please release me from this demon inside of me!

[Chorus]

[Solo]

[Verse 3]
Now here I stand
There's a gun in my hand
Close your eyes
'Cause this is your demise!
Now hush, don't you cry
I'm your sweet lullaby
Eternal life they promised me, can't you see
Eternal will it be!

One last kiss is all it takes
One last kiss of death before the one awakes

[Chorus]

[Outro]
[Nightfall:] Mary?
[Mary:] Yes?
[Nightfall:] Do you believe in god?
