Carpe Noctem

Carpe noctem Carpe noctem A state of inner rage No signs of finishing When all the years of ardor grind a will diminishing The many moments of elation fading from your sight The clarity of isolation truly terrifies Every empire falls in the end It's just a matter of when Every empire falls in the end We are marked for death Carpe noctem, seize the night Carpe noctem, while you still can Count your blessings, not your curses, I heard someone say But we had each other More than we have today Carpe noctem, seize the night Carpe noctem, while you still can What is for you won't go by you, I heard someone say But we had it all To throw it all away Weary eyes never lie Reflecting suffering As lengthy shadows grow around an aura withering The years were never kind but now they are bereft of light The memories of ecstasy no longer in your mind If this is what the price is I will gladly pay it If this is how you feel Then go ahead and say it I'd savour victory but I don't like the taste Playing with precious time I can't afford to waste Carpe noctem Carpe noctem Carpe noctem Carpe noctem Carpe noctem, seize the night Carpe noctem, while you still can Count your blessings, not your curses, I heard someone say But we had each other More than we have today Carpe noctem, seize the night Carpe noctem, while you still can What is for you won't go by you, I heard someone say But we had it all To throw it all away...
