In the darkness

In the darkness

Bound up in strife

He can’t find his wife

 

In the darkness

In the darkness

His life is so bare

He can’t care

 

In the darkness

In the darkness

All he does is stare

And swear

 

In the darkness

In the darkness

He can't move about and shout

All he does is pout

 

In the darkness

In the darkness

He can’t find out

How to get out

 

In the darkness

In the darkness

All he does is hiss

Like he doesn’t exist

 

In the darkness

In the darkness

He can’t find a kiss

All there is, is mist

 

In the darkness

In the darkness

There is no light

But a lot of blight.

 

In the darkness

In the darkness

He can’t find

To be kind

 

In the darkness

In the darkness

There is only him

Life is so dim

 

In the darkness

In the darkness

There is no power

That can flower

 

In the darkness

In the darkness

There is no feast

Only a beast

 

 

In the darkness

In the darkness

He will lie

And die

 

In the darkness

In the darkness

It is a black hole

To go

 

In the darkness

In the darkness

There is only decay

How long must I stay

Please Please take me away
