The Thief and the Moon Lyrics

[Verse]
Said the Thief to the Moon, "I'll extinguish your light soon
I'll put an end to all the light that you shed on this world in its darkened state"

[Instrumental Bridge]

[Outro]
"The earth will rise up and devour all that you are
The skies will call forth thunderous storms from afar
When you're dead, there'll be no grave to remember your name
For your greed brings your end and there's no one but yourself to blame"
