Through the kingdom of night.
Come face to face with what we hide,
Shed our skin revealing what's inside.
A perilous chase, a distant cry.
The moon is full we've reached the other side.
Never the same again.
Dusk is upon us again,
as soon as the owl takes flight.
Come face to face with what we hide,
Shed our skin revealing what's inside.
A perilous chase, a distant cry.
The moon is full we've reached the other side.
Hearts beating stronger,
Mortal no longer,
