"Waiting for Darkness"

"Waiting for darkness
Doesn't anybody see?
Deafened by silence
Doesn't anybody hear?"

("I'm waiting darkness")

"Playing with fire
But they're screaming When they're burned
Out of the sunlight
Hasn't anybody learned?"

"I know what they find
Is in their mind
Its what they want to see
Spare me from the light
Here comes the light
And here I'll stay
Waiting for darkness"

"Promise me rebirth
And then you tear me from the womb
And then you lock me in a tomb"

"I know what they find
Is in their mind
Its what they want to see
Spare me from the light
Here comes the night
And here I'll stay"

"Waiting for darkness
You gotta believe, you gotta believe its true
I'm waiting for darkness
I just can't conceive why darkness is overdue."

"Waiting for darkness
I'm waiting for darkness"

"Who knows the answers?
Is it friend or is it foe?
Don't ask me questions
There are things you shouldn't know"

"I know what you find
Is in your mind
Its what you want to see
Spare me from the light
Here comes the night
And here I'll stay
Waiting for darkness"
