Guided by darkness
Karolina Marszałkowska 1993 (Gdańsk)
From time to time we were meant to be
Somehow I know why we ended here
The voices of fright and traces of screams
Guided us calmly through all seven sins
The light died agreeing with a temptation
Darkness! We cannot take more sensations
The people are crumbling stil we stand tall
Silently watching while all angels fall
Time is scared of what is to come
Because nation dies ,flags will fall down
Hearts will get ripped and tarnished souls
You've never seen more evil dawn
The light has died after eons of brightness
Some get rewarded some pay their prices
Darkness! Never was it so overwhelming
Feathers are changing, our names are fading
