Alas, the gloom of night blankets the earth
Slowly laying its sheet upon the whimpers of sadness
Almost soothingly, with a perverse grin
He closes his eyes so soft, so quiet
Only small cries break the silence
Hush, let the cries cling to you
Give them harbor, give them rest
Give them what they seek
Night, our comforter, lover of pain
Our only friend, shows us the secrets of darkness
So fear not the shadows when they come
Hark their laughter at your suffering
Then fold into the mist of misery
And lay quiet as the soul begins to evanesce...
Feel the desperation, see the emptiness
Hold death in your arms, for hope has transformed
And life is no more...
Night, our comforter, lover of pain
Our only friend, shows us the secrets of darkness
So fear not the shadows when they come
Hark their laughter at your suffering
And life... is no more
