I feel like I borrowed/inspired a lot of my lyrics off of other things, and so I felt like giving proper praise to those that I borrowed from.

Lyrics:

When the light is running low...
And the shadows start to grow...
And the places that I know...
Feel like centuries ago...

(With darkened skies!)
That's when I raise up my blade...
Bring to life my own world saved...
(Bring forth the night!)
Blackened pillars mark my fate...
This world is mine to create...

There's a cage around your soul...
Shrinking tighter in the cold...
With a truth etched into stone...
That your fate is not your own...

(Now carve your rite!)
I promise you that you're met
with a future darker yet
(Oh, Roaring Knight!)
Legends told but you forget
That in the dark I'm in control!

Any light I see turned to dark
As I make with blade my ark
I deny your right to choose
In this game you will lose.

You cannot stop what I've started
Though the mantle guards your heart, it
is foolish to avoid
the call of the void!

Meanwhile the world will scream and cry!
For its life!
The ground will shake and quake and break
Blood gushing bright!

Raise up your bat and face the fright!
Of my Black Knife!
Burning away the day and making the world blind

I feel your hope slowly dying!
(So why not give up trying?)
Fight, but you'll never leave a mark!

I'll pierce a hundred fountains with my knife!
(I'll knock you into the night!)
As Fear takes hold within your heart!

No matter how far you may run from me
(Know that I will always be!)
I'll always be with you in the dark!

Stumble forward, knees are shaking...
All around you, light is breaking...
And the darkness overtaking...
Soul inside you, ever aching...

(Awakened eyes!)
That's when you will feel the chill
Deathly cold forever still
(Bring forth the night!)
Blackened pillars mark my will
This world is now mine to kill

There's a friend inside your soul
Gripping tighter in the cold
Etching truth into the stone
That your fate is not your own...

(Now break the light)
Time to face the looming threat
And make a future darker yet
(Oh Roaring Knight!)
Titans roar but you forget
That in the dark I'm in control!

Engarde Now! Heroes against the dark!
As I make with blade my mark!
Watch the roars consume the day!
You won't stand in my way!

How long can you three endure?
Before your soul gives in, Your
Hopes are lost deeper within
The gaze of the abyss

Hold your last breath, and say goodbye!
Pray for life!
The day will scream and plead to me
But still comes night!

There's nothing left, it's time to die!
By my Black Knife!
But still, you cling to fleeting freedom, how nice!

I feel your light slowly dying!
(But yet you keep on trying?)
Fight, but you still won't leave a mark!

I'll pierce a thousand fountains with my power!
(This is the final hour!)
As Fear holds tighter to your heart!

No matter how far you may run from me
(Know that I will always be!)
Always with you in the dark!
