Born in a cradle of thorns
Into the burden of infamy
All hail the chosen one
Behold, the golden son

Rising with the dawn
Into a future of majesty
A shining light
The blinding eye of fate

In the dark
Burned a dying star
Sing your final song
Oh, how the mighty have fallen

In the dark
Fading into dust
All that's good has gone
Oh, how the mighty have fallen
Beyond the dark

Stumble upon yourself
Exit of divinity
A lantern light in the midnight air
Guide me home, down in a hole

Forsake yourself
Too far gone
All that's left, a sense of self
You discarded along the way

In the dark
Burned a dying star
Sing your final song
Oh, how the mighty have fallen

In the dark
Fading into dust
All that's good has gone
Oh, how the mighty have fallen

In the dark, in the dark
Oh, oh
In the dark, in the dark
Oh, oh

In the dark
Burned a dying star
Sing your final song
Oh, how the mighty have fallen

In the dark
Fading into dust
All that's good has gone
Oh, how the mighty have fallen

In the dark, in the dark
Oh, oh
In the dark, in the dark
Oh, oh
