The blackness closing in
And I can feel
The sweetest sense of sorrow
And I know it’s real
As I lay here with you
Like serpents entwined
The light fades from us
And leaves the world behind

It never seems to be healed,
This wound inside of me
Even the sanctuary of night
Keeps taunting me
I used to be of the type;
Patient, and open to this
Now time is running out
With my lover,
In the cool darkness
