your darkness flows within me
and I crave to see the light again

your past sins have been grievous
and they haunt my inner world

your chains have left their mark
on my bruised and beaten soul

the time has come for me to swim
in the darkest shark infested seas

to escape your psychotic world
of broken promises and shotgun shells

Fireflies luminate in wake of a setting sun
Tiny beacons becoming a river of light
Riding the current into the dusk dreams
The delicate drink of the evening affairs

Night owls, inspired by the twilight
Screech a verse with midnight maddness
Acrobatic arms orchestrate sunset tunes
Big booms serenade noctournal beast

Dark now blooms with wild music
The New Moon offering her acoustic
Play on, play on, before they wake
The Sunset Symphony, until day break

The clock is sitting by the bed
I hear it ticking in my head
it's morning that I really dread
time to go and make the bread
have to keep the family fed
if I don't, then they'll be dead
