    Here’s the closest I’ve got.

    Priest - History In Black

    Priest is an electronic music project originally formed by ex-members of the hugely popular band Ghost. I’d call this Darkwave, but the label doesn’t matter, it’s depeche mode-y and don’t let the gimp mask put you off, I believe the song is very sincere.

    I can't stop, it's too late, it pours out, it's my fate
    My legacy in black
    Looking in to my eyes, see the things i despise
    My soul is tainted black
    
    I traveled with the enemy, i thought it was my destiny
    I'm free of all the lunacy
    I never want it back, my history in black
    
    Silent screams longing voice, violent dreams, ringing noise
    My memory is black
    It's not a mask, it's my skin
    Please don't ask where i've been
    My heart is painted black
    
    I traveled with the enemy, i thought it was my destiny
    I'm free of all the lunacy
    I'm never want it back, my history in black
    
    I escaped from the cage inside
    
    I traveled with the enemy, i thought it was my destiny
    I'm free of all the lunacy
    I never want it back, my history in black
    My history in black
