Only Fire, No Sun is a song I wrote and recorded as a preliminary demo in 2021. I intend to make a better recording of it soon, hopefully with a studio engineer, and then feature it as a supporting song for my horror novel project about two dark enchantresses.

--Verse 1
Evil paves your road to suffer
her truths and lies
The teacher draws your lesson
burns it into your eyes

-- Pre-chorus 1
Autumn's winds will reach you
(her zephyr will burn)
And her tides will teach you
(the lessons you'll learn)
And her storms will break you
(you will know)
All the way down
Where her stairs descend
You will go

-- Chorus
Feel the pain of her flame
It's a warning
Taste her kiss
In her spell you are falling
Pledge your soul on the wrong side of midnight
Follow her dark and you'll know
Only fire, no sun
Only fire, no sun

--Verse 2
You've got to taste her skin
It's a fever that burns inside
Wrapped inside her flesh it's too late
to escape or die

-- Pre-chorus 2
Autumn's voice hypnotized you
(you're lost in her maze)
Her rough touch energized you
(your heart is her slave)
All her dark possessed you
(you are hers)
All the way down
Where her chains lead you
You will go

[Chorus]

-- Bridge
She draws blood with her nails through my heart
that only bleeds love for her
Lights my dark with the rings on her sun till I'm blind
I won't escape her desire
I can't resist and I don't deny her
My heart is only hers while she's not mine

[instrumental]

[repeat chorus]

You have a way with words! I loved listening to how you put the lyric together. And the musical setting really gave it life.

@Vicki — Thank you very much for listening and your kind words, Vicki! I look forward to hearing a new song from you soon! ;D

Kind regards,
Joseph
