This is an alternate version of a Nocturnal song...it has entirely different intro, additional synth stuff, totally different lyrics, since I wrote the whole goddamn thing, I am keeping this version mine. Very heavy song...again, no bass...

Inspired by a keyboard doodle by The Nocturnal's Jason Decay and since we needed to write a song, I came with a preliminary version of the main riff for it, odd timed--but then I decided on making it straight triplets...the riffs were pretty much my old riffs, so is the progression. I had to change the intro to avoid trouble with The Nocturnal, since now I can claim this as my full song.Interestingly, the Nocturnal version is still untitled...
Lyrics
Walking right through the dead of the night
(I feel it coming)
Stealthily tracing the steps that I’ve made
The greatest deceiver of all comes tonight
for he will draw nearer with a reaper to my side
The cold steel slits me in the dark
Stripping away my life and my pride
This can’t be happening to me
Could this be what it’s meant to be?
Oh fate unjust you are to me
For but a child I am, yet you see no sympathy
Oh take me out of this malevolent nightmare
And stop this blood, from dripping slowly from my veins
Take me not with you; release me back to my world
Let me return to my sleep again tonight
Dark emptiness, shall all then come to this end?
Oh Great Deceiver, how well you’ve been deceiving us…
