Verse 1
When justice died and hope was lost,The people wept beneath the storm.By candlelight and midnight prayers,They called for vengeance from despair.
From distant seas and endless night,An ancient shadow heard their cries.Neither living nor fully dead,Dark Velvet rose as darkness spread.
Chorus
Dark Velvet...The darkness knows his name.Dark Velvet...Nothing will ever be the same.
Summoned by the wounded,Called by tears and pain,He walks among the guiltyBeneath blood-red rain.
Verse 2
The church bells ring, the heavens shake,Even the earth begins to wake.Horse-drawn carriages flee in fear,For everyone knows he is near.
The lanterns fade along the road,Cold winds sing their mournful ode.The moon burns crimson over the sea,As vengeance comes relentlessly.
Chorus
Dark Velvet...The darkness knows his name.Dark Velvet...Nothing will ever be the same.
Summoned by the wounded,Called by tears and pain,He walks among the guiltyBeneath blood-red rain.
Bridge
He was not born upon these shores,Nor bound to this forgotten land.Yet sorrow called across the night,To place revenge within his hands.
The innocent whispered,The forgotten prayed,And every debt of bloodWill finally be repaid.
The tyrants tremble,The wicked hide,But no soul escapesWhen the shadows decide.
Final Chorus
Dark Velvet...Lord of the endless night.Dark Velvet...Bearer of fear and fright.
The guilty run,The guilty hide,Yet darkness followsWherever they ride.
The moon bears witness,The heavens cry,As Dark Velvet risesBeneath the Philippine sky.
Outro
The candles fade...The church bells fall silent...The darkness answered...The people's call...
Dark Velvet...
Has come.
For revenge.
