2x

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 hide the yearning;

for the things, that can not be

Keep my mind, from constant turning;

towards the things, I can not see, now;

things I can not see, now;

things I can not see

Darkness, darkness long and lonesome;

ease the day, that brings me pain

I have fell, into the sadness;

I hide to trick the fear

Darkness, darkness be my blanket;

cover me, with your endless night

Take away take away the pain of knowing;

fill the emptiness, so bright now

emptiness, so bright now

emptiness, so bright

Solo

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 me, with the endless night

Take away, take away the pain of knowing;

fill the emptiness, so bright now

emptiness, so bright, now, now

emptiness, so bright

Oh, yeah Oh, yeah

Emptiness, emptiness

Oh, yeah
