lyrics

A new kind of darkness
from looking into the sun
words from the prophets
heard by no one

Clouds full of rain
that never comes down
the soul wait to be faced
the morning star rises

Night birds come for a taste
of water

The truth of the soul
is what you don't know
the moving water
the moving water

Too blind to know
the danger that may be
under the sea
under the sea

Fly through the night
to a world bright with the sun
awaken by looking inside

The dark and the light
are tied
resist the urge to hide
