Last Night

Last night I reborn
Not from light, but from scorn
You tried to save what was already gone
A fading portrait, a forgotten dawn

Your hands reached through the dark
Igniting a dying spark
But some fires aren't meant to last
They burn out, blindingly fast

A new entity entered in me
Not a ghost, but a deity
You called it a curse, I call it a crown
This body is no longer my own town
I'm not who you knew
Not broken, not frail
I am the ending
And the holy grail

You whispered my name like a prayer
But I was no longer there
The girl you loved slipped through the cracks
And something ancient, stared back

I felt it climb inside my bones
Rewrite my heart, claim all I own
You wept as my eyes turned to coal
But darling, I was never in your control

A new entity lives in me
Older than time, wilder than sea
You tried to save a soul already sold
A story already told
I am not lost, not slain, not low
I am the shadow
You helped to grow

(Voice merges with electronic distortion)
Last night
I became
