When darkness creeps near And night looms above At the edge of the horizon And the gloom stalks every shadow We cover near our well-known light We are blind and frightened Of what the darkness might hold What defense do we have against the terror of the unknown? A flickering flame Our hope, our shield That's what keeps us warm From dusk till dawn Are lives set in stone? Is fate our only path? Are we free, how do you know? Tell me, how do you know? A web of questions Glimmering in the night Moonlight's touch On a philosopher's mind A gentle wind blows The leaves speak in tongues The mist lies deep And thoughts go mad Fearful of the dawn Another day of mistrust But we carry the small source of warmth That's what keeps us all warm From dusk till dawn Have you listened to the words I bring? Did you take them to heart? There is no sadness No sadness in love You can't have the key to every lock The key resides deep down in your mind The true source of life is those close to you And the song of passion pulsing in your chest Take heart! Take heart!
