Darkness Darkness, be my pillow

take my head and let me sleep

in the coolness of your shadow

in the silence of your deed

Darkness Darkness, hide my yearnin'

for the things I can not see

eat my mind for constant turnin'

for the things I can not be

Darkness Darkness, be my blanket

cover me with this endless night

take away this state of lonely

fill this emptyness with lightnin'

emptyness with lightnin'

Darkness darkness, long and lonesome

is the day that brings me here

I have found the heirs of sadness

I have known the grips of fear

Darkness darkness, be my blanket

cover me with the endless night

take away this pain I've known

fill this emptyness with lightnin'

emptyness with lightnin'

Darkness darkness, be my blanket

cover me with the endless night

take away this state of lonley

fill this emptyness with lightnin'

oh with lightnin

Darkness Darkness, be my pillow

take my head and let me sleep

in the coolness of your shadow

in the silence of your deed

in the silence of your deed
