At Night We Prey Songtext
von Nightfall

Tales I know never ended well
Demons lurked under my bed
Devouring my soul and flesh
Fed with fear, I grew up a broken man

Our idols fell shuttered, crashed
Celebrations never last
Forever dearth of reason versus torrid vision
Leads us all to the chamber of treason

Damned to roam from one hell to the next
My evil soul never rests
Pass me the knife to cut a slice
Of happiness running through your veins

Compromise is a muted scream
Compromise broken dream
Compromise life and thinking
That′s the meaning of their pity lives


At night we prey with a torch in our hands
At night we prey with a flame in our hearts
With people of darkness and people of doom
At night we prey under a full moon
At night we prey under a full moon

There are many like me, you know
We talk in tongues and share our pain
We feel each other so close and safe
In darkness baptize our heir
In darkness baptize our heir

There is a church that practice the art of hating life
There is that cross reminding of all comforting lies
Your mind in charge of deeds that follow thoughts and will
Beloved by beasts and madmen where you belong you love

No safe haven waits for you, no peace of mind
Nobody speaks with you, you are a devil's cunt
They want no different mind, a scapegoat you are
The devil in you now becomes your savior star

Compromise is a muted scream
Compromise broken dream
Compromise life and thinking
That′s the meaning of their pity lives


At night we prey with a torch in our hands
At night we prey with a flame in our hearts
With people of darkness and people of doom
At night we prey under a full moon
At night we prey under a full moon
