Darkness, Darkness Songtext
von Jesse Colin Young

Darkness, darkness, be my pillow
Take my hand, and let me sleep
In the coolness 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
Towards the things I cannot see now
Hide everything I cannot be

Darkness, darkness, long and lonesome
Ease the day that brings me here
I have felt the edge of sadness
I have known the depth of fear


Darkness, darkness, be my blanket
Cover me with the endless night
Want you to take away the pain of knowing
Fill the emptiness of right now
Hide the emptiness of right now

Darkness, darkness, be my pillow
Take my head and let me sleep
In the coolness of your shadow
In the silence of your deep

Darkness, darkness, be my blanket
Cover my with the endless night
Want you to take away the pain of knowing
Fill the emptiness of right now

Oh yeah, oh yeah
Oh yeah, oh yeah, emptiness, emptiness, oh yeah
Emptiness, emptiness, oh yeah
Take that pleasure, it possesses me

Thank you, good night
Thanks for coming
