Darkness, Darkness

written by Jesse Colin Young

performed by Lisa Torban for Ghosts of the Abyss

(this version is somewhat different from the original lyrics - therefore I transcribed them directly from the song itself.)

 

Darkness, Darkness

Be my pillow

Take my hand

And let me sleep

In the coldness of your shadow

In the silence of your deep

 

Darkness, Darkness

Hide my yearning

For the things

That cannot be

Keep my mind

From constant turning

Toward the things

That cannot see

 

Darkness, Darkness

Long and lonesome

With the day that brings

My happiness

I have found the edge of silence

Oh I am in depths of fear

 

Darkness, Darkness

Be my blanket

Cover me

At the endless night

Take away the pain of your way

Fill the emptiness with light

 

Darkness, Darkness

Hide my yearning

For the things

That cannot be

Keep my mind

From constant turning

Toward the things

That cannot see
