You know you're in darkness When the lights become brighter. How odd is the night The stars are on fire Yet the air is ice. The fan in my room Drys up my hot tears. Every electrical wire Had a charge with a purpose A safe place to go. Wires are strangling cords Given to the children of today. There was a baby in her belly Did she know how'd she turn up A hideous creature. The future is less of a line And more like a rubber band. I tie my hair up When I want to feel the sun And when the sun gets too hot. The sun has a troubled brother They call him dim moon. The moon barley sheds light Do not be discouraged Everyone knows his name. You know you're in darkness When the lights become brighter.
