Lyric

In shadows swaying, I find a faint light

Reaching for a distance I can’t close, a sweet, aching wound

Walking silently behind you as if I’m unseen

Dreaming of locking you in my world, hidden from view

The breath of Erebus whispers to me

“I’ll find you, wherever you go”

Footprints fade in the dark, melting away

And the warmth I’ve never touched is mine alone to know

You leave a trace of wind, a scent lingering in the night

That alone keeps me alive, keeps my heart alive

Layering shadows upon shadows in the silent night

Binding my soul to yours where you’ll never see

The breath of Erebus leads me on

“A hidden distance, a sweetly cruel snare”

Though I may never touch you, all of you is mine

In darkness bound, a secret never to be shared

The sound of your steps, unheard yet known

Echoes with my heartbeat, guiding me home

This undying longing chases the night

Until shadows claim you, pulling you inside

The breath of Erebus cloaks me still

With your hidden name, with my secret will

Though you’ll never know I’ve held you close

My silent love consumes me whole

Even when dawn breaks, no light will reach here

The breath of Erebus holds you near

In this darkness, my quiet dream unfurls

Holding the captive vision of you in my world
