Sitting in the silence of this sleepless winter night
Darkness like a sheet conceals me from the light.
Helplessly I watch as it seeps into my veins
All of me the Darkness now contains.

Lashing out in anger, I tear away my flesh
Drowning in my blood, compulsively I thresh.
All of my emotions held captive by the pain,
Through all of this the Darkness still remains.

In frantic desperation I sacrifice my soul
To drive away the Darkness, my self consuming goal
As consciousness of life slowly drips down the drain
I find internal Darkness still remains

Don’t let yourself be blinded with the light of day,
Night is forth coming, it can’t be kept away.
All life ends with calamitous defeat
A deathly pallor impossible to cheat.

And so let begin this everlasting rein,
For in the end the silhouette of Darkness will remain.
