I'd sacrifice my very life
To have you at my side
Like a dream I see your face
Through the misty haze
We were one amid the stars
And time never healed my scars
Deep inside the sadness burns
I must return
I must return

I listened to this back when it came out. I still like it 7 years later. We don't hear azrael any longer. There are a few sounds in this song which are akin to slaughterhouse, the game on nes.
