Eternity Burns

from Hotel Messerschmitt by BAAN

/

lyrics

You got something that you want to ask
Please come in closer, tell me of your task
I don’t hear too well these days
And I can barely see your face

Oh, such a pretty face too
I’d hate to miss out on meeting you
I heard about you from the nurses
They say you’re suffering from the worstest o’curses

Nothing comes easy, nothing comes free
You be the hunter, I’ll be the beast
Nothing goes easy, nothing returns
If you live forever, eternity burns

I know the one you seek in vain
I know a little of your pain
Many years ago I was just like you
I can tell you what you’ll have to do

Somewhere very close to all that you hold dear
The beast has made his home, keeps all his treasures near
Images of everyone you ever knew
He wants to get inside the deepest parts of you

Nothing comes easy, nothing comes free
You be the hunter, I’ll be the key
Nothing goes easy, nothing returns
If you live forever, eternity burns

The path has led you here, it must be fate
To stand so certain before the Demon Gate
I know what it is you want me to say
That there has to be an easier way, ha ha ha ha!

To kill a demon eternal and strong
My sweetest peril, that’s where you’ve gone wrong
Yes, once I was an angel, but I trod the path of sorrow
My punishment is to destroy all your tomorrows
