Safety In The Darkness

There’s nothing I can say to build these bridges back

Against the tides that washed them away

The life has left this room

Like a thousand fires gone black against the sky and scarlet moon

The smoke is in the air, choking out the sun

It’s rising in the air, I can’t see

And I will find you there, somewhere in the dark

Buried in a place between dead and broken hearts

There’s safety in the darkness, there’s safety in the dark

I have left these shores to face the tempest night

That stirs the stars against the waters with its storms

The sirens sing their song

It’s like a thousand hands that pull me down and break the course I travel on

The ocean fills my lungs, drowning out the sun

It’s rising in my lungs, I can’t breathe

I close my eyes to see the light that’s leading me
